Subject: [PATCH] rtc: m48t59 fix section mismatch warning

From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@...cle.com>

Change the name of this data to use a name (suffix) that is whitelisted
by MODPOST so that the section warning is fixed (not generated).

WARNING: vmlinux.o(.data+0x1b140): Section mismatch: reference to .init.text:m48t59_rtc_probe (between 'm48t59_rtc_platdrv' and 'm48t59_nvram_attr')
