RTC core never calls rv8803_set_alarm with an invalid alarm time, so if an invalid alarm time > 0 is set, external factors must have corrupted the RTC's alarm time and possibly other registers. Play it safe by marking the date/time invalid, so all registers are reinitialized on a ->set_time. This may cause existing setups to lose time if they so far set only date/time, but ignored that the alarm registers had an invalid date value, e.g.: rtc rtc0: invalid alarm value: 2020-3-27 7:82:0 These systems will have their ->get_time return -EINVAL till ->set_time initializes the alarm value (and sets a new time).

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.
