It's OK to schedule or sleep in mpc_xfer. It's not OK to call mpc_xfer
from an interrupt context, which is what appears to be happening here.
So the ds1307 driver would need to be changed not to directly call
i2c_transfer from the interrupt. Using a workqueue should work.

That being said, I wonder why one would want to set the time from an
interrupt context in the first place. Maybe that's what needs fixing.
