Biwen Li 7b0b551dbc rtc: fsl-ftm-alarm: add FTM alarm driver
For the platforms including LS1012A, LS1021A, LS1028A, LS1043A,
LS1046A, LS1088A, LS208xA that has the FlexTimer
module, implementing alarm functions within RTC subsystem
to wakeup the system when system going to sleep (work with RCPM driver).

Neil Armstrong 6ef35398e8 rtc: Add Amlogic Virtual Wake RTC
The Amlogic Meson GX SoCs uses a special register to store the
time in seconds to wakeup after a system suspend.

In order to be able to reuse the RTC wakealarm feature, this
driver implements a fake RTC device which uses the system time
to deduce a suspend delay.

Kevin Hilman ed16239637 dt-bindings: rtc: new binding for Amlogic VRTC
Add binding fo the new VRTC driver for Amlogic SoCs.  The 64-bit
family of SoCs only has an RTC managed by firmware, and this VRTC
driver provides the simple, one-register firmware interface.

Dan Carpenter a6f26606dd rtc: rv3029: revert error handling patch to rv3029_eeprom_write()
My error handling "cleanup" was totally wrong.  Both the "err" and "ret"
variables are required.  The "err" variable holds the error codes for
rv3029_eeprom_enter/exit() and the "ret" variable holds the error codes
for if actual write fails.  In my patch if the write failed, the
function probably still returned success.

ret =

Matti Vaittinen 41a8e19f47 rtc: bd70528: fix driver dependencies
With CONFIG_BD70528_WATCHDOG=m, a built-in rtc driver cannot call
into the low-level functions that are part of the watchdog module:

drivers/rtc/rtc-bd70528.o: In function `bd70528_set_time':
rtc-bd70528.c:(.text+0x22c): undefined reference to `bd70528_wdt_lock'
rtc-bd70528.c:(.text+0x2a8): undefined reference to `bd70528_wdt_unlock'
drivers/rtc/rtc-bd70528.o: In function `bd70528_set_rtc_based_timers':
rtc-bd70528.c:(.text+0x50c): undefined reference to `bd70528_wdt_set'

Add a Kconfig dependency which forces RTC to be a module if watchdog is a
module. If watchdog is not compiled at all the stub functions for watchdog
control are used. compiling the RTC without watchdog is fine.

Mike Rapoport 618381f09c hexagon: switch to generic version of pte allocation
The hexagon implementation pte_alloc_one(), pte_alloc_one_kernel(),
pte_free_kernel() and pte_free() is identical to the generic except of
lack of __GFP_ACCOUNT for the user PTEs allocation.

Switch hexagon to use generic version of these functions.

Rob Herring 7d9ef7f37d dt-bindings: riscv: Limit cpus schema to only check RiscV 'cpu' nodes
Matching on the 'cpus' node was a bad choice because the schema is
incorrectly applied to non-RiscV cpus nodes. As we now have a common cpus
schema which checks the general structure, it is also redundant to do so
in the Risc-V CPU schema.

The downside is one could conceivably mix different architecture's cpu
nodes or have typos in the compatible string. The latter problem pretty
much exists for every schema.

  Though except for the still ongoing printk refactoring, the remaining
  changes which are required to make RT a first class mainline citizen
  are not longer arguable as immediately beneficial for the mainline
  kernel. Most of them are either reordering code flows or adding RT
  specific functionality.

  But this now has hit a wall and turned into a classic hen and egg
  problem:

     Maintainers are rightfully wary vs. these changes as they make only
     sense if the final integration of RT into the mainline kernel takes
     place.

  Adding CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT aims to solve this as a clear sign that RT
  will be fully integrated into the mainline kernel. The final
  integration of the missing bits and pieces will be of course done with
  the same careful approach as we have used in the past.

  While I'm aware that you are not entirely enthusiastic about that, I
  think that RT should receive the same treatment as any other widely
  used out of tree functionality, which we have accepted into mainline
  over the years.

  RT has become the de-facto standard real-time enhancement and is
  shipped by enterprise, embedded and community distros. It's in use
  throughout a wide range of industries: telecommunications, industrial
  automation, professional audio, medical devices, data acquisition,
  automotive - just to name a few major use cases.

  RT development is backed by a Linuxfoundation project which is
  supported by major stakeholders of this technology. The funding will
  continue over the actual inclusion into mainline to make sure that the
  functionality is neither introducing regressions, regressing itself,
  nor becomes subject to bitrot. There is also a lifely user community
  around RT as well, so contrary to the grim situation 5 years ago, it's
  a healthy project.

  As RT is still a good vehicle to exercise rarely used code paths and
  to detect hard to trigger issues, you could at least view it as a QA
  tool if nothing else"
