Introduce a driver for the ACPI Time and Alarm Device (TAD) based on
Section 9.18 of ACPI 6.2.
This driver only supports the system wakeup capabilities of the TAD
which are mandatory. Support for the RTC capabilities of the TAD
will be added to it in the future.
This driver is entirely sysfs-based. It provides attributes (under
the TAD platform device) to allow user space to manage the AC and DC
wakeup timers of the TAD: set and read their values, set and check
their expire timer wake policies, check and clear their status and
check the capabilities of the TAD reported by AML. The DC timer
attributes are only present if the TAD supports a separate DC alarm
timer.
The wakeup events handling and power management of the TAD is
expected to be taken care of by the ACPI PM domain attached to its
platform device.
