[PATCH RFC 09/12] time: Convert rtc_time_to_tm_unsafe() to rtc_time_to_tm() in alarm_set_rtc()

From: pang.xunlei
Date: Mon Oct 27 2014 - 01:48:42 EST


The kernel uses 32-bit signed value(time_t) for seconds since 1970-01-01:00:00:00, so it
will overflow at 2038-01-19 03:14:08 on 32-bit systems. We call this "2038 safety" issue.

As part of addressing 2038 saftey for in-kernel uses, this patch creates no functional change
in existing users, and converts rtc_time_to_tm_unsafe() to rtc_time_to_tm().
