From ba7fbb723f50ab2607989a282af655fb0fab0492 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jean Delvare Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2007 14:12:29 +0200 Subject: i2c: Deprecate legacy RTC drivers We have a new RTC subsystem with better drivers. Legacy driver status: * ds1337: The DS1337 and DS1339 are now supported by the rtc-ds1307 driver, so it looks to me like we could even delete the ds1337 driver right away. * ds1374: Will soon be replaced with Scott Wood's rtc-ds1374 driver. * m41t00: The M41T00 is supported by the rtc-ds1307 driver. For the M41T81 and M41T85, the rtc-m41t80 driver written by Atsushi Nemoto should work. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare Cc: Alessandro Zummo Acked-by: Mark A.
