OK, so here's a first example: rtc-ps3.

Note that this single patch adds 100+ lines of code, while my previous patch
series removed 500+ lines of code, while solving the autoloading problem for
several ppc and m68k platforms.

Converting all (ca. 20?) ppc and m68k RTC support code into individual RTC
class drivers would add ca. 100+ lines of code for each individual driver.

 This patch has a much cleaner approach, imho.

 How different are all of those boards? It's simply a matter
 of parameters and offsets? can we group them somehow?

I imagine we could cut down the numbers somewhat with clever code sharing,
but it's still going to be a fairly large number. I don't know all the
embedded boards, but just with all the Macintosh models there are at
least three and maybe four drastically different methods of RTC access,
and all of them are directly tied to some chip that does something else
completely unrelated. For one of them we don't even have a driver at the
moment.  They also are all custom chips that wouldn't be used anywhere
else. The other thing we need to keep in mind is that if we do it right
we can share drivers across m68k and powerpc in some cases.  I imagine
some of the embedded powerpc boards are using chips that are common in
other architectures as well.

Yeah, on Mac/m68k the RTC is usually handled by a chip that does lots of other
things, so you need to keep the bulk of the code in arch/m68k/ anyway.

Many embedded powerpc boards already have RTC class drivers under drivers/rtc/,
as their RTC chips are sufficiently common.

The ones that don't are mostly "workstation" or "server" type hardware. The
full list is:
  - rtas_set_rtc_time
  - mpc8xx_set_rtc_time
  - beat_get_rtc_time
  - chrp_set_rtc_time
  - iSeries_set_rtc_time
  - maple_set_rtc_time
  - pmac_set_rtc_time
  - ps3_set_rtc_time
