Randy's patch is an attempt to fix Mathias's "x86: rtc: don't register
a platform RTC device for Intel MID platforms".

I'm tempted to do a mass droppage, but then some of the patches might
get forever lost.

I am presently babysitting these x86 patches:

x86-fix-mmap-random-address-range.patch
arch-x86-kernel-e820c-eliminate-bubble-sort-from-sanitize_e820_map.patch
vrtc-change-its-year-offset-from-1960-to-1972.patch
x86-rtc-dont-register-a-platform-rtc-device-for-intel-mid-platforms.patch
x86-rtc-dont-register-a-platform-rtc-device-for-intel-mid-platforms-fix.patch
mrst-battery-fixes.patch
mrst-battery-fixes-fix.patch
x86mrst-add-mapping-for-bma023.patch
arch-x86-kernel-e820c-quiet-sparse-noise-about-plain-integer-as-null-pointer.patch
arch-x86-kernel-ptracec-quiet-sparse-noise.patch
arch-x86-mm-pageattrc-quiet-sparse-noise-local-functions-should-be-static.patch
x86-tlb-flush-avoid-superflous-leave_mm.patch

Could we please get some x86 maintainers on deck??
