Hi Geert,

It's the support for the "DA9063 RTC *driver* in the DA9062 MFD driver core".

I'm re-working the DA9063 RTC driver to support DA9062 RTC hardware. This will make
the name "DA9063 RTC driver" interchangeable with "DA9062 RTC driver", because if this
patch goes through they will both be using the original "DA9063 RTC driver".

Confused? :-/

I suppose I could also have called this patch "support for the DA9062 RTC H/W in the
DA9062 MFD driver core".

This comes from a previous thread here:
