outside the stuff other RTC drivers do use.

Agreed. I'd say let's wait if RTC maintainer(s) step up and have anything
to say to this patchset.

If there's a silence, it'll probably be ok taking it through my review
process and my tree, but at least for 3/3 I'd definitely like to have Ack
from someone else as well.

For this reason, this is likely not be 3.10 material, but 3.11.

Thanks a lot.

I already have another patch here to support milliseconds (for hctosys), and I might have another patch ready in a few days, which adjusts the system time whenever the HID device sends a timestamp which includes milliseconds (enabled by a new module option named adjtime for rtc-hid-sensor-time, which is by default off). The basics do already work, but I'm just starting to look at how to adjust the system time best, so suggestions are welcome. ;)

(Therefor I've now added the maintainers for kernel/time/timekeeping.c to cc).

Regards,

Alexander
