The only problem with pc80/rtc.c is that pc80/mc14618rtc.c already exists and even has this code. It is just a mater of calling: rtc_init, on most of the boards that need it. It has a long name only because it references the original motorola part number.
OK.
So calling rtc_init from an appropriate place appears to be all that is required. Which I do from ich2_rtc_init() and ich3_rtc_init().
I wonder if we might not call rtc_init from hardware main based upon a config variable? CONFIG_RTC_INIT? Is there harm done if you call it but it did not need to be called? I have never looked at the RTC, as you can tell.
