Subject: [PATCH] driver: ip27-rtc - convert ioctl to unlocked_ioctl

This patch converts ioctl call to unlocked_ioctl form with
explicit big-kernel-lock. Also it makes a bit of cleanup
converting miscdevice structure initialization to C99 form.

Signed-off-by: Cyrill Gorcunov <gorcunov@...il.com>

Any comments are welcome.
This is untested code - i've no such chip on my laptop.

Andi, i think we could use mutex to eliminate BKL, but not sure.
