How are those numbers determined ? The datasheet gives voltage ranges.
I'd have assumed that the center of those ranges is chosen, but for the
most part it is the maximum, except for 2900 which is a bit above center
and 3100 for "> 3.0V". Not that I care too much, but it seems to me that
using the center voltage for each range would be more consistent.

This won't compile if CONFIG_HWMON=n or if CONFIG_RTC_DRV_PCF85053A=y and
CONFIG_HWMON=m.
