As reported by Andrew, the vendor prefix for Seiko Instruments, Inc.
S-35390A I2C RTC chip in kirkwood-synology.dtsi has a typo (ssi
instead of sii). This patches fixes it.

Should the driver now support both variants for backward compatibility?

Hi Jason

This is an i2c device. i2c totally ignores the vendor. It is optional.
So there is no backward compatibility issues.

This question keeps coming up, so I'd suggest explaining it in the
patch changelog.
