Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Alarmtimer fixes for 3.0

Hey Thomas,
	Here are two alarmtimer fixes that should go in for 3.0.
The first is a fix to check for rtc devices on demand, to better
handle late rtc device driver loading. And the second makes sure
we report an error to apps using alarmtiemrs if there is no backing
RTC device.

Let me know if you have any issues with these.

Both of these patches are available in the git repository at:

  alarmtimers: Handle late rtc module loading
  alarmtimers: Return -ENOTSUPP if no RTC device is present
