[PATCH] rtc: interface: set the next alarm event appropriately

From: Xu Yiping
Date: Tue Sep 19 2017 - 23:22:59 EST


From: Xu YiPing <xuyiping@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

After commit 2b2f5ff00f63 ("rtc: interface: ignore expired timers when
enqueuing new timers"), the rtc_timer_enqueue will not reprogram the RTC
when there is any non-expired timers in the timerqueue. If we set a
RTC_TIMER between now and the next non-expired timers, it won't go into
effect in time.

So, besides ignoring the expired timers, we should take the next effect
timer into account, and reprogram the RTC timer appropriately.
