Subject: [PATCH 4.9 71/83] rtc: hctosys: Add missing range error reporting

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Maciej W. Rozycki <macro@...ux-mips.org>

commit 7ce9a992ffde8ce93d5ae5767362a5c7389ae895 upstream.

Fix an issue with the 32-bit range error path in `rtc_hctosys' where no
error code is set and consequently the successful preceding call result
from `rtc_read_time' is propagated to `rtc_hctosys_ret'.  This in turn
makes any subsequent call to `hctosys_show' incorrectly report in sysfs
that the system time has been set from this RTC while it has not.

Set the error to ERANGE then if we can't express the result due to an
overflow.
