Subject: [PATCH] rtc: vt8500: Fix year field in vt8500_rtc_set_time

year field is incorrectly masked when setting the date. If the year
is beyond 2099, the year field will be incorrectly updated in hardware.

This patch masks the year field correctly.

Hi Andrew,

This patch has been floating around since -rc1, but looks like it may have been
missed. I have rebased it onto -rc4 to make applying it easier. Trivial fix.

Regards
Tony P
