Hi!

/* XXX this driverfs stuff should probably go elsewhere later -john
*/
static struct sys_device device_i8253 = {
- .name = "rtc",
.id = 0,
- .dev = {
- .name = "i8253 Real Time Clock",
- },
+ .cls = &rtc_sysclass,
};

...but i8253 is *not* real time clock. Its clock since
bootup. Realtime clock is near battery-backed CMOS RAM, its driver is
linux/drivers/char/rtc.c...
