Subject: [PATCH 2/2] rtc: pcf2127: add battery-low INTn generation

The pcf2127 has an automatic battery-low detection function.

In case of battery-low event, an interrupt generation through
the pin INTn (active low) can be enabled, setting the flag BLIE
in the register Control_3.

This function is activated by the "battery-low-hw-alarm" DT property.

Example of use for an NXP i.MX7D board:

&i2c3 {
	clock-frequency = <100000>;
	pinctrl-names = "default";
	pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_i2c3>;
	status = "okay";

	pcf2127@51 {
		compatible = "nxp,pcf2127";
		reg = <0x51>;
		battery-low-hw-alarm;
		status = "okay";
	};
};
