Commit f44f7f96a2 ("RTC: Initialize kernel state from RTC") uncovered
an issue in a number of RTC drivers, where the drivers call
rtc_device_register before initializing the device or platform drvdata.
This frequently results in null pointer dereferences when the
rtc_device_register immediately makes use of the rtc device, calling
rtc_read_alarm.
The solution is to ensure the drvdata is initialized prior to registering
the rtc device.

The first releases of LP3974 have a large delay in RTC registers,
which requires 2 seconds of delay after writing to a rtc register
(recommended by National Semiconductor's engineers)
before reading it.
If "rtc_delay" field of the platform data is true, the rtc driver
assumes that such delays are required. Although we have not seen
LP3974s without requiring such delays, we assume that such LP3974s
will be released soon (or they have done so already) and they are
supported by "lp3974" without setting "rtc_delay" at the platform
data.
This patch adds delays with msleep when writing values to RTC registers
if the platform data has rtc_delay set.

This adds support for the RTC provided by the Maxim 8998 chip. This
driver was tested on a GONI board by using the rtc-test application from
the Documentation/rtc.txt.
