Subject: [PATCH 0/8] rtc: cleanup task handling

Hi,

This series drops the now unused periodic task handling. It has been
used in total by 3 drivers that were dropped and mainly replaced by
kernel timers.

This allows to also remove a few rtc_device struct members and struct
rtc_task.

Tested using rtcpie and rtctest.

Alexandre Belloni (8):
  rtc: sa1100: don't set PIE frequency
  rtc: sh: remove dead code
  rtc: remove rtc_irq_register/rtc_irq_unregister
  rtc: remove irq_task and irq_task_lock
  rtc: simplify rtc_irq_set_state/rtc_irq_set_freq
  rtc: unexport rtc_irq_set_*
  char: rtc: remove task handling
  rtc: remove struct rtc_task
