    rtc: Check return value from mc146818_get_time() · 0dd8d6cb
    Mateusz Jończyk authored
    There are 4 users of mc146818_get_time() and none of them was checking
    the return value from this function. Change this.
    
    Print the appropriate warnings in callers of mc146818_get_time() instead
    of in the function mc146818_get_time() itself, in order not to add
    strings to rtc-mc146818-lib.c, which is kind of a library.
    
    The callers of alpha_rtc_read_time() and cmos_read_time() may use the
    contents of (struct rtc_time *) even when the functions return a failure
    code. Therefore, set the contents of (struct rtc_time *) to 0x00,
    which looks more sensible then 0xff and aligns with the (possibly
    stale?) comment in cmos_read_time:
    
    	/*
    	 * If pm_trace abused the RTC for storage, set the timespec to 0,
    	 * which tells the caller that this RTC value is unusable.
    	 */
    
    For consistency, do this in mc146818_get_time().
    
    Note: hpet_rtc_interrupt() may call mc146818_get_time() many times a
    second. It is very unlikely, though, that the RTC suddenly stops
    working and mc146818_get_time() would consistently fail.
    
    Only compile-tested on alpha.
