We no longer need the rtc compat handling to be in common code, now that
all drivers are either moved to the rtc-class framework, or (rarely)
exist in drivers/char for architectures without compat mode (m68k,
alpha and ia64, respectively).
I checked the list of ioctl commands in drivers, and the ones that are
not already handled are all compatible, again with the one exception of
m68k driver, which implements RTC_PLL_GET and RTC_PLL_SET, but has no
compat mode.
Unlike earlier versions of this patch, I'm now adding a separate
compat_ioctl handler that takes care of RTC_IRQP_READ32/RTC_IRQP_SET32
and treats all other commands as compatible, leaving the native
behavior unchanged.
The old conversion handler also deals with RTC_EPOCH_READ and
RTC_EPOCH_SET, which are not handled in rtc-dev.c but only in a single
device driver (rtc-vr41xx), so I'm adding the compat version in the same
place. I don't expect other drivers to need those commands in the future.

v4: handle RTC_EPOCH_SET32 in rtc_dev_compat_ioctl
v3: handle RTC_IRQP_READ32/RTC_IRQP_SET32 in rtc_dev_compat_ioctl
v2: merge compat handler into ioctl function to avoid the
compat_alloc_user_space() roundtrip, based on feedback
from Al Viro.
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
