Add the memory resource for the sa1100-rtc device. Since the memory
resource is already present in the pxa_rtc_resources, that makes
sa1100_rtc_resources and pxa_rtc_resources equivalent, so use
pxa_rtc_resources for both devices and remove the duplicate
sa1100_rtc_resources.
This really isn't a good idea - what do you think happens when
the same struct resource gets passed into insert_resource()
twice?
Bad things. If you recall, we discussed this on v1[1]. See the commit
msg of patch 2 for the summary. There is not currently a problem
because the rtc-pxa driver does not request the resource.
There /is/ a problem, because it's not only the driver which does this,
it's also the platform device code when the device is registered.
See platform_device_add().
