[PATCH][v2] Add support for RTC device: pt7c4338 in rtc-ds1307.c

[Priyanka Jain]

PT7C4338 chip is being manufactured by Pericom Technology Inc.
It is a serial real-time clock which provides:
1)Low-power clock/calendar.
2)Programmable square-wave output.
It has 56 bytes of nonvolatile RAM.
Its register set is same as that of rtc device: DS1307.

 Change for v2:
	 Incorporting Andrew Morton's comments to shorten patch by using
         hunk: { "pt7c4338", ds_1307 }

 Changes :
	 This patch will supersede patch:
		"RTC driver(Linux) for PT7C4338 chip"
	 Incorporting Wolfram Sang's comments to reuse ds1307 driver.

You can't claim copyright just by adding one line of text.

I think you should probably drop the Kconfig change, too.  It already says, "and
probably other chips", and you're also just bloating the summary line.  We can't
list every possible Dallas-compatible RTC chip here.
