    rtc_time_to_tm: fix signed/unsigned arithmetic · 73442daf

     ("rtc: rtc_time_to_tm: use
    unsigned arithmetic") changed the some types in rtc_time_to_tm() to
    unsigned:
    
     void rtc_time_to_tm(unsigned long time, struct rtc_time *tm)
     {
    -       register int days, month, year;
    +       unsigned int days, month, year;
    
    This doesn't work for all cases, because days is checked for < 0 later
    on:
    
    if (days < 0) {
    	year -= 1;
    	days += 365 + LEAP_YEAR(year);
    }
    
    I think the correct fix would be to keep days signed and do an appropriate
    cast later on.
