Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Remove VLA usage in rtc-s5m

This patchset aims to remove VLA usage from rtc-s5m.

The first patch moves an enum from rtc.h to rtc-s5m.c, as this is the
only driver in which such enum is actually being used [1].

The second patch adds the enum name RTC_MAX_NUM_TIME_REGS, which will
be used as a maximum length to the current VLAs, hence turning them
into fixed-length arrays instead.

Thanks
