[PATCH 4.9 136/153] rtc: sun6i: Switch to the external oscillator

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Fri Mar 10 2017 - 05:48:22 EST


4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Maxime Ripard <maxime.ripard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit fb61bb82cb46a932ef2fc62e1c731c8e7e6640d5 upstream.

The RTC is clocked from either an internal, imprecise, oscillator or an
external one, which is usually much more accurate.

The difference perceived between the time elapsed and the time reported by
the RTC is in a 10% scale, which prevents the RTC from being useful at all.

Fortunately, the external oscillator is reported to be mandatory in the
Allwinner datasheet, so we can just switch to it.
