Cassio Neri 1d1bb12a8b rtc: Improve performance of rtc_time64_to_tm(). Add tests.
The current implementation of rtc_time64_to_tm() contains unnecessary
loops, branches and look-up tables. The new one uses an arithmetic-based
algorithm appeared in [1] and is approximately 4.3 times faster (YMMV).

The drawback is that the new code isn't intuitive and contains many 'magic
numbers' (not unusual for this type of algorithm). However, [1] justifies
all those numbers and, given this function's history, the code is unlikely
to need much maintenance, if any at all.

Add a KUnit test case that checks every day in a 160,000 years interval
starting on 1970-01-01 against the expected result. Add a new config
RTC_LIB_KUNIT_TEST symbol to give the option to run this test suite.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
