Unless it's broken _recently_ we already have confirmation that rtc-1307
works for DS1307 and M41T00, so it's the other chips that would be most
interesting ...

I think the ds1337.c driver could vanish if we had confirmation that
the ds1307 driver also works on the DS1337 and DS1339 ... so, special
thanks if you can confirm it with those chips.  Chip docs say they
are compatible, so far as the driver is concerned.
