Subject: [patch 2.6.19-rc6 1/6] rtc class /proc/driver/rtc update

Fix two minor botches in the procfs dumping of RTC alarm status:

 - Stop confusing "alarm enabled" with "wakeup enabled".

 - Don't display bogus "irq pending/un-acked" status; those are the rather
   pointless semantics EFI assigned to this (for a no-IRQs environment).

The main RTC that seems confused about this is the sa1100 one, which
doesn't actually report whether it enabled the alarm.
