More build coverage uncovered two build failures on m68k due to "[PATCH v3
02/16] rtc: cmos: move mc146818rtc code out of asm-generic/rtc.h":

These do not show up with a multi-platform config including Atari
support, as arch/m68k/include/asm/mc146818rtc.h provides a definition of
CMOS_READ() if CONFIG_ATARI=y.

Fortunately the fixes are simple: replace <linux/mc146818rtc.h> by
<linux/rtc.h>. Will send patches to fix...
