Update rtc-cmos shutdown handling to leave RTC alarms active, resolving
http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11411 on several boards.  There
are still some systems where the ACPI event handling doesn't cooperate.
(Possibly related to bugid 11312, reporting the spontaneous disabling of
RTC events.)

Bug 11411 reported that changes to work around some ACPI event issues
broke wake-from-S5 handling, as used for DVR applications.  (They like to
power off, then wake later to record programs.)

This fixes kernel http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11112 (bogus
RTC update IRQs reported) for rtc-cmos, in two ways:

  - When HPET is stealing the IRQs, use the first IRQ to grab
    the seconds counter which will be monitored (instead of
    using whatever was previously in that memory);

  - In sane IRQ handling modes, scrub out old IRQ status before
    enabling IRQs.

That latter is done by tightening up IRQ handling for rtc-cmos everywhere,
also ensuring that when HPET is used it's the only thing triggering IRQ
reports to userspace; net object shrink.

Also fix a bogus HPET message related to its RTC emulation.

<title>rtc-cmos: improve HPET IRQ glue</title>

Resolve http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11051 and other bugs
related to the way the HPET glue code in rtc-cmos was incomplete and
inconsistent:

 * Switch the approach so that the basic driver code flow isn't
   changed by having HPET ... instead, just have HPET shadow the
   RTC_CONTROL irq enables and RTC_FREQ_SELECT data.  It's only
   coping with IRQ thievery, after all.

 * Do that consistently (!!) to avoid problems when the HPET code
   is out of sync with the real RTC intent.  Examples include:

   - cmos_procfs(), which now reports correct data

   - cmos_irq_set_state() ... also removing the previous PIE_{ON,OFF}
     ioctl support so only one code path manages "periodic" IRQs

   - cmos_do_shutdown() ... currently a "just in case" change.

   - cmos_suspend() and cmos_resume() ... also handling a bug that
     was specific to HPET's IRQ thievery, where the alarm wasn't
     disabled after waking the system

 * Always call that HPET code under the RTC spinlock (it doesn't do
   its own locking)

Also clean up the HPET glue:

 * Add some comments explaining what's going on.

 * Switch to having just one #ifdef for the HPET glue, and inline
   functions (not #defines) to avoid some compiler warnings.

 * Have the probe message also report when HPET IRQs are involved

This still leaves various holes in the HPET glue, like the emulated update
IRQs being out of sync with the RTC, alarms never using day or month
matches, and many extra IRQs (at 64 Hz).

When CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC is defined the external declaration of
hpet_rtc_interrupt is redundant due to the inclusion of hpet.h.

When !CONFIG_HPET_EMULATE_RTC we make it clear that hpet_rtc_interrupt is
not used by defining it to return zero.

Recently (around 2.6.25) I've noticed that RTC no longer works for me.  It
turned out this is because I use pnpacpi=off kernel option to work around
the parport_pc bugs.  I always did so, but RTC used to work fine in the
past, and now it have regressed.

The patch fixes the problem by creating the platform device for the RTC
when PNP is disabled.  This may also help running the PNP-enabled kernel
on an older PCs.

There is a bug in the function of cmos_set_alarm.  RTC alarm time for October
can't be set correctly.

For October: 0x0A will be written into the RTC region (MONTH_ALARM) in current
kernel.  But in fact 0x10 should be written.  Wildcards are also not handled
correctly.

For the "cmos" RTC, have /proc/driver/rtc say whether HPET based IRQ
emulation is in effect.  Given the problems we've had with this particular
hardware maldesign (and the fact that most BIOS code seems not to provide
the IRQ routing needed to use the saner HPET modes), this should help
troubleshooting.
