Subject: [PATCH] rtc: fix rtc_time64_to_tm calculation

Type of local variable days has been changed recently to unsigned,
but it can take negative values. As a result it works incorrectly for some
arguments. The patch fixes it.

The problem has been detected using proposed semantic patch
scripts/coccinelle/tests/unsigned_lesser_than_zero.cocci [1].
