Hi Andy,

get_wallclock() and set_wallclock() are function pointers of platform_ops

which are initialized to mach_get_cmos_time() and mach_set_rtc_mmss()

at init time. Since adding a new platform to override these functions is

discouraged, so the only way is to modify RTC get/set functions.
Shouldn't it be platform agnostic code?
So, my point is, instead of hacking two functions, perhaps better to avoid them
at all.
Sorry, i could not understand your point. The changes are platform

agnostic i.e. it doesn't break existing use cases. Are you recommending

to add a new platform and make changes there ?
Nope, I propose to do something like

void __init foo()
{
        if (platform has RTC)
                return;

        set_wallclock = noop;
        get_wallclock = noop;
}

Thanks. I will work out a V2 patch as per your suggestion

and send out for review again.

Regards,

Rahul
