[ Upstream commit abfdff44bc38e9e2ef7929f633fb8462632299d4 ]

When using RTC_ALM_SET or RTC_WKALM_SET with rtc_wkalrm.enabled not set,
rtc_timer_enqueue() is not called and rtc_set_alarm() may succeed but the
subsequent RTC_AIE_ON ioctl will fail. RTC_ALM_READ would also fail in that
case.

Ensure rtc_set_alarm() fails when alarms are not supported to avoid letting
programs think the alarms are working for a particular RTC when they are
not.

<title>rtc: interface: Validate alarm-time before handling rollover</title>

[ Upstream commit da96aea0ed177105cb13ee83b328f6c61e061d3f ]

In function __rtc_read_alarm() its possible for an alarm time-stamp to
be invalid even after replacing missing components with current
time-stamp. The condition 'alarm-&gt;time.tm_year &lt; 70' will trigger this
case and will cause the call to 'rtc_tm_to_time64(&amp;alarm-&gt;time)'
return a negative value for variable t_alm.

While handling alarm rollover this negative t_alm (assumed to seconds
offset from '1970-01-01 00:00:00') is converted back to rtc_time via
rtc_time64_to_tm() which results in this error log with seemingly
garbage values:

"rtc rtc0: invalid alarm value: -2-1--1041528741
2005511117:71582844:32"

This error was generated when the rtc driver (rtc-opal in this case)
returned an alarm time-stamp of '00-00-00 00:00:00' to indicate that
the alarm is disabled. Though I have submitted a separate fix for the
rtc-opal driver, this issue may potentially impact other
existing/future rtc drivers.

To fix this issue the patch validates the alarm time-stamp just after
filling up the missing datetime components and if rtc_valid_tm() still
reports it to be invalid then bails out of the function without
handling the rollover.

In __rtc_read_alarm(), if the alarm time retrieved by
rtc_read_alarm_internal() from the device contains invalid values (e.g.
month=2,mday=31) and the year not set (=-1), the initialization will
loop infinitely because the year-fixing loop expects the time being
invalid due to leap year.

Fix reduces the loop to the leap years and adds final validity check.

<title>rtc: Keep system awake until all expired RTC timers are handled</title>

Current implementation of RTC interface allows for system suspend to
occur in the following cases:
(a) if a timer is set in the past and rtc_timer_do_work() is scheduled
to handle it, and
(b) if rtc_timer_do_work() is called to handle expired timers whose
handlers implement a preemption point.

A pending suspend request may be honoured in the above cases causing
timer handling to be delayed until after the next resume. This is
undesirable since timer handlers may have time-critical code to execute.

This patch makes sure that the system stays awake until all expired
timers are handled.

Note that all calls to pm_stay_awake() are eventually paired with
the single pm_relax() call in rtc_timer_do_work(), which is launched
using schedule_work().

All in-kernel users of class_find_device() don't really need mutable
data for match callback.

In two places (kernel/power/suspend_test.c, drivers/scsi/osd/osd_uld.c)
this patch changes match callbacks to use const search data.

The const is propagated to rtc_class_open() and power_supply_get_by_name()
parameters.

Note that there's a dev reference leak in suspend_test.c that's not
touched in this patch.

<title>RTC: Avoid races between RTC alarm wakeup and suspend.</title>

If an RTC alarm fires just as suspend is happening, it is possible for
suspend to complete and the alarm to be missed.

To avoid the race, we must register the event with the PM core.

As the event is made visible to userspace through a thread which is
only scheduled by the interrupt, we need a pm_stay_awake/pm_relax
pair preventing suspend from the interrupt until the thread completes
its work.

This makes the pm_wakeup_event() call in cmos_interrupt unnecessary as
it provides suspend protection for all RTCs that use rtc_update_irq.
