/sys/class/rtc/rtcX/date and /sys/class/rtc/rtcX/time currently have
read-only access. This patch introduces write functionality which will
set the rtc time.

Usage: echo YYYY-MM-DD > /sys/class/rtc/rtcX/date
echo HH:MM:SS > /sys/class/rtc/rtcX/time

Why do we want to add a new interface here?

thanks
