Hi,

Kindly, this format change formats the rtc dump from:
alrm_time : 00:00:00
alrm_date : 1970-01-01
alarm_IRQ : no
alrm_pending : no

to:
alarm time : 00:00:00
alarm date : 1970-01-01
alarm IRQ : no
alarm pending : no


Yes, and this would break the ABI as this file is in procfs. This is not
something I'm willing to do, especially since this file has been
deprecated since 2006.

OK. So shall we default it as n like:
diff --git a/drivers/rtc/Kconfig b/drivers/rtc/Kconfig
index a819ef0..c51f0e1 100644
--- a/drivers/rtc/Kconfig
+++ b/drivers/rtc/Kconfig
@@ -100,7 +100,7 @@ config RTC_INTF_SYSFS
config RTC_INTF_PROC
bool "/proc/driver/rtc (procfs for rtcN)"
depends on PROC_FS
- default RTC_CLASS
+ default n

Say yes here if you want to use your system clock RTC through
the proc interface, /proc/driver/rtc.
