Thank you. I took a look, and I agree with everyone else that this was a
legacy patch that isn't required.
The original idea was to use the same API for both real ADB requests and
everything else that goes through the PMU, Egret, or CUDA chips. This
includes not only RTC/PRAM management, but power control and several
other things as well. It wasn't such a great idea, honestly.
