[rtc-linux] [PATCH v2] drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c: avoid out of range year values

From: Stefan Christ <hidden>
Date: 2016-03-15 13:22:27
Subsystem: real time clock (rtc) subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Alexandre Belloni, Linus Torvalds

Avoid saving an out of range year value to the RTC. Reading that value
from the RTC again returns a totally wrong time value. For Example

    $ timedatectl set-ntp no
    $ timedatectl set-time "1990-01-01 12:12:00"
    # Reboot
    rtc-m41t80 0-0068: setting system clock to 2090-01-01 12:12:35 UTC (3786955955)

Signed-off-by: Stefan Christ <redacted>

v2: fix checkpatch warning in if
