[coreboot] New patch to review for coreboot: f6a4652 RTC: Add a routine to check if the CMOS date is valid If the CMOS is cleared or someone writes some random date/time on purpose, the CMOS date register has a invalid date. This will hurts some OS, like Windows 7, which hangs at MS logo forever. When we detect that, we need to write a reasonable date in CMOS.

RTC: Add a routine to check if the CMOS date is valid
    If the CMOS is cleared or someone writes some random date/time
    on purpose, the CMOS date register has a invalid date. This will
    hurts some OS, like Windows 7, which hangs at MS logo forever.
    When we detect that, we need to write a reasonable date in CMOS.
