The purpose of this option is to allow ARM/etc systems that rely on the class RTC subsystem to have the same kind of automatic NTP based synchronization that we have on PC platforms. Today ARM does not implement update_persistent_clock and makes extensive use of the class RTC system. When enabled CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC will provide a generic rtc_update_persistent_clock that stores the current time in the RTC and is intended complement the existing CONFIG_RTC_HCTOSYS option that loads the RTC at boot. Like with RTC_HCTOSYS the platform's update_persistent_clock is used first, if it works. Platforms with mixed class RTC and non-RTC drivers need to return ENODEV when class RTC should be used. Such an update for PPC is included in this patch. Long term, implementations of update_persistent_clock should migrate to proper class RTC drivers and use CONFIG_RTC_SYSTOHC instead.
