Yes.  I'll turn on CONFIG_GENERIC_CMOS_UPDATE.  Do you think it needs
to be a config option that can be turned on and off in the kernel
config, or should it just be always on as on x86[-64]?

on a half-second, which is not the case of the RTC on 
my boards to start with).

Let's get the generic code fixed to do what we need then.  Care to
send a patch?
