I'd say that this is actually the only correct way to do it. Only dates
before 01/01/1970 00:00 are considered invalid. So, unless adding a
check like:
if (tm->tm_year < 100)
return -EINVAL;
in abx80x_rtc_set_time, setting and then reading a date before 2000 will
fail silently. I'm open to add that check.

It is because I didn't bother writing the hundreth of seconds, I'll
change that and the other issues you pointed.
