Re: [PATCH] RTC: Add mmap method to rtc character driver

Agreed.  How about we take the /dev/rtc patch now (since its an added feature
that doesn't hurt anything if its not used, as far as tickless kernels go), and
I'll start working on doing gettimeofday in vdso for arches other than x86_64.
That will give the X guys what they wanted until such time until all the other
arches have a gettimeofday alternative that doesn't require kernel traps.

It hurts if it DOES get used.
