3.8.13.27 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me 
know.

------------------

From: Boris BREZILLON <boris.brezil...@free-electrons.com>

commit 2fe121e1f5aa3bf31b418a9790db6c400e922291 upstream.

The rtc user must wait at least 1 sec between each time/calandar update
(see atmel's datasheet chapter "Updating Time/Calendar").

Use the 1Hz interrupt to update the at91_rtc_upd_rdy flag and wait for
the at91_rtc_wait_upd_rdy event if the rtc is not ready.

This patch fixes a deadlock in an uninterruptible wait when the RTC is
updated more than once every second.  AFAICT the bug is here from the
beginning, but I think we should at least backport this fix to 3.10 and
the following longterm and stable releases.
