Subject: [PATCH] rtc: ds1307: fix century bit support

Add an option to properly support the century bit of ds1337 and compatibles
and ds1340.
Because the driver had a bug until now, it is not possible to switch users
to the fixed code directly as RTCs in the field will wrongly have the
century bit set.

Arnaud, do you mind testing that patch, I still don't have the necessary
hardware but I think this is the proper course of action.

+	  The DS1307 driver suffered from a bug where it was enabling the
+	  century bit inconditionnally but never used it when reading the time.
+	  It made the driver unable to support dates beyond 2099.
+	  Setting this option will add proper support for the century bit but if
+	  the time was previously set using a kernel predating this option,
+	  reading the date will return a date in the next century.
+	  To solve that, you could boot a kernel without this option set, set
+	  the RTC date and then boot a kernel with this option set.
