This commit doesn't exist in Linus's tree. Maybe in linux-next ?

Anyway, as you are reverting, please consider this :
the commit that exists is : c4243de70f7d536d95196b8a31539298bb15238c
"drivers/rtc/rtc-pxa.c: drivers/rtc/rtc-pxa.c: fix alarm not match issue".

This commit should be reverted :
 - because it's wrong :
   > tm->tm_wday = ((rycr & RDxR_DOW_MASK) >> RDxR_DOW_S) - 1;
   See how RYCR is used with a RDCR mask ...

 - because as maintainer I have already nacked this kind of patch :
   https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/1819851/
   The reasons given here are still valid AFAIK.

I'm pretty sure I didn't receive this patch in my mailbox. After I refused
ChaoXie first patch, the second "same approach" patch from Liangs was sent in my
back. I don't understand how that could happen ...

Liangs, please make sure to add me to the reviewers next time ?

Cheers.
