[PATCH 0/4] rtc: ds1307: Add support for Epson RX8901CE

[Fredrik M Olsson]

Add basic support for the Epson RX8901CE RTC.
Datasheet: https://download.epsondevice.com/td/pdf/app/RX8901CE_en.pdf

Also includes a bug fix for an issue with reading the weekday from the
RTC which affects both the existing rx8130 and this rx8901 driver.

[PATCH 2/4] rtc: ds1307: Fix off-by-one issue with wday for rx8130

[Fredrik M Olsson]

The RTC represent each weekday with a individual bit set in the WDAY
register, where the 0th bit represent the first day of the week and the
6th bit represents the last day of the week. For each passed day the
chip performs a rotary-left-shift by one to advance the weekday by one.

The tm_wday field represent weekdays by a value in the range of 0-6.

The fls() function return the bit index of the last bit set. To handle
when there are no bits set it will return 0, and if the 0th bit is set
it will return 1, and if the 1st bit is set it will return 2, and so on.

In order to make the result of the fls() function fall into the expected
range of 0-6 (instead of 1-7) this patch subtracts one from the result
(which matches how the value is written in ds1307_set_time()).

[PATCH 4/4] rtc: ds1307: Add support for reading RX8901CE battery VL status

[Fredrik M Olsson]

Adds support for:
- Reading the battery voltage low status using the RTC_VL_READ ioctl,
  which also reports invalid time information if the VLF flag is set.

The multiple dev_err you are adding should be dev_dbg as there is no
other actions for the user than to restart the operation when it fails
so there is not actual value apart when debugging.

You can't do this as this will cause issues in the future for people
wanting to keep this bit disabled (the main reason being that you don't
want to draw power from the battery while your device sits on a shelf).
You have to handle the RTC_PARAM_BACKUP_SWITCH_MODE parameter and then
switch it from userspace.

This seems to be an unrelated changed that hasn't been squashed in the

Here my intention was to do something similar to what was done before 
for the rx8130 device [1], which as I understand it require similar 
setup initialization as the rx8901 device does. Is using the 
RTC_PARAM_BACKUP_SWITCH_MODE the new way of performing this initialization?
