Thanks for your comment ans sorry for my late reaction.

I was using a community maintained version of drivers/rtc/rtc-sun6i.c
which adds support for the H616 into this file. The proposed change is
than common for H6 AND H616 based on the introduced flag has_auto_cal.
It does fix my problem.
The patch however is based on mainline and therefor does not have the
H616 extension.

Just recently I was able to get the code in drivers/clk/sunxi-ng/ccu-
sun6i-rtc.c working for my H618 box. It requires a change in just this
ccu-sun6i-rtc.c file. Unfortunatly it is based on try and error picking
and I don't understand why it is required.

The change is that the name "osc32k-out" is now equal tho the string
used in drivers/rtc/rtc-sun6i.c.

May be someone has a clue on this?

So the PATCH requested here looses importance because for the H6 it
would improve RTC only in the rare case where there is no external 32k
oscillator or when the external oscillator fails.

Probably not worth the effort.
