First, sorry for messing up the subject line.

Johannes, is there any special meaning in "migrate all of powerpc to 
genrtc"? Or is it just porting every single rtc driver to the generic rtc 
API, moving it under drivers/rtc and adjusting its users or are there any 
global changes required to arch/powerpc? Linkstation is now happily using 
a driver under drivers/rtc, whereas originally it also had a "all special" 
driver, and the migration for me wasn't that difficult... Or is there more 
to do for other platforms?

Thanks
Guennadi
