commit 5b8b58063029f02da573120ef4dc9079822e3cda upstream.

According to the OPAL docs:
  skiboot-5.2.5/doc/opal-api/opal-rtc-read-3.txt
  skiboot-5.2.5/doc/opal-api/opal-rtc-write-4.txt

OPAL_HARDWARE may be returned from OPAL_RTC_READ or OPAL_RTC_WRITE and
this indicates either a transient or permanent error.

Prior to this patch, Linux was not dealing with OPAL_HARDWARE being a
permanent error particularly well, in that you could end up in a busy
loop.

This was not too hard to trigger on an AMI BMC based OpenPOWER machine
doing a continuous "ipmitool mc reset cold" to the BMC, the result of
that being that we'd get stuck in an infinite loop in
opal_get_rtc_time().

We now retry a few times before returning the error higher up the
stack.

<title>rtc: opal: enable support for the stardard "wakeup-source" property</title>

<content type='text'>
Though the opal rtc driver should and will continue to support the legacy
"has-tpo" property to enable RTC as the wakeup source, we need to add
support for the new standard property "wakeup-source"

This patch adds support for "wakeup-source" property in addition to the
existing "has-tpo" property.

<title>rtc: opal: Enable alarms only when opal supports tpo</title>

rtc-opal driver provides support for rtc alarms via
timed-power-on(tpo). However some Power platforms like BML use a fake
rtc clock and don't support tpo. Such platforms are indicated by the
missing 'has-tpo' property in the device tree.

Current implementation however enables callback for
rtc_class_ops.read/set alarm irrespective of the tpo support from the
platform. This results in a failed opal call when kernel tries to read
an existing alarms via opal_get_tpo_time during rtc device registration.

This patch fixes this issue by setting opal_rtc_ops.read/set_alarm
callback pointers only when tpo is supported.

<title>rtc/tpo: Driver to support rtc and wakeup on PowerNV platform</title>

<content type='text'>
The patch implements the OPAL rtc driver that binds with the rtc
driver subsystem. The driver uses the platform device infrastructure
to probe the rtc device and register it to rtc class framework. The
'wakeup' is supported depending upon the property 'has-tpo' present
in the OF node. It provides a way to load the generic rtc driver in
in the absence of an OPAL driver.

The patch also moves the existing OPAL rtc get/set time interfaces to the
new driver and exposes the necessary OPAL calls using EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL.
