Merge tag 'rtc-4.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/abelloni/linux

Pull RTC updates from Alexandre Belloni:
 "This contains a few series that have been in preparation for a while
  and that will help systems with RTCs that will fail in 2038, 2069 or
  2100.

  Subsystem:
   - Add tracepoints
   - Rework of the RTC/nvmem API to allow drivers to discard struct
     nvmem_config after registration
   - New range API, drivers can now expose the useful range of the RTC
   - New offset API the core is now able to add an offset to the RTC
     time, modifying the supported range.
   - Multiple rtc_time64_to_tm fixes
   - Handle time_t overflow on 32 bit platforms in the core instead of
     letting drivers do crazy things.
   - remove rtc_control API

  New driver:
   - Intersil ISL12026

  Drivers:
   - Drivers exposing the RTC non volatile memory have been converted to
     use nvmem
   - Removed useless time and date validation
   - Removed an indirection pattern that was a cargo cult from ancient
     drivers
   - Removed VLA usage
   - Fixed a possible race condition in probe functions
   - AB8540 support is dropped from ab8500
   - pcf85363 now has alarm support"

+ISL12026 I2C RTC/EEPROM
+
+ISL12026 is an I2C RTC/EEPROM combination device.  The RTC and control
+registers respond at bus address 0x6f, and the EEPROM array responds
+at bus address 0x57.  The canonical "reg" value will be for the RTC portion.
+
+Required properties supported by the device:
+
+ - "compatible": must be "isil,isl12026"
+ - "reg": I2C bus address of the device (always 0x6f)
+
+Optional properties:
+
+ - "isil,pwr-bsw": If present PWR.BSW bit must be set to the specified
+                   value for proper operation.
+
+ - "isil,pwr-sbib": If present PWR.SBIB bit must be set to the specified
+                    value for proper operation.
+
+
+Example:
+
+	rtc@6f {
+		compatible = "isil,isl12026";
+		reg = <0x6f>;
+		isil,pwr-bsw = <0>;
+		isil,pwr-sbib = <1>;
+	}
