Log:
[hppa]: Fix RTC_CLASS regression with PARISC.

add patch by upstream arch maintainer:
James Bottomley <James.Bottomley at HansenPartnership.com>

this fixes a regression from 2.6.25 making all parisc clocks drifting.
the port to the new rtc infrastructure is on the way,
but not stable material. This easy fix gets back to 2.6.25 way.

+As of 2.6.26, most distribution kernels for PARISC are coming with the
+wrong RTC infrastructure enabled, meaning that userland can no longer
+get at the RTC, so all our parisc clocks are drifting.
+
+The fault is this patch:

+    rtc: avoid legacy drivers with generic framework
+
+Which makes drivers/rtc take precedence over the generic rtc.  However,
+for parisc we only have the generic rtc, so in essence this turns off
+our ability to access the rtc.  Put it back again by making RTC_CLASS
+unselectable if the architecture is parisc.
