Let me put that differently. That should be done as a separate
patch, adding (a) that platform_device, and maybe platform_data
if it's got additional alarm registers, and (b) Kconfig support
to let that work. I'd call it a "patch #4 of 3". ;)

I will try to play with the new code on Monday on ARM...

Thanks. Could you describe your ARM board? None of mine have an
RTC using this register API. Does it support system sleep states
(/sys/power/state) with a wakeup-capable (enable_irq_wake) RTC irq?

Woody will be using a Netwinder (he's part of the original development
team.) So no sleep states and therefore no wakeup.

There's various other ARM-based systems using the PC RTC, but none of
them have sleep or wakeup abilities afaik.
