gpiolib-cdev is extended to support hardware clock type, this
patch reflects that fact.

After the checking of the command line options we need a small sanity
check so we don't try to enable both realtime and hardware clock
at the same time, we will only be able to request one of them.
This will any way fail at gpiolib-cdev layer. Do we want to add it here

as well?
I can't speak for Linus, but I'm fine with it as is as it allows the tool
to be used to exercise the sanity check in the kernel.
Fair enough, that sounds useful. Go ahead with this as-is.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
