ACPI: /proc/acpi/alarm parsing: handle large numbers properly
In function acpi_system_write_alarm in file drivers/acpi/sleep/proc.c, big sec, min, hr, mo, day and yr are counted twice to get reasonable values, that is very superfluous, we can do that only once. In additon, /proc/acpi/alarm can set a related value which can be specified as YYYY years MM months DD days HH hours MM minutes SS senconds, it isn't a date, so you can specify as +0000-00-00 96:00:00 , that means 3 days later, current code can't handle such a case. This patch removes unnecessary code and does with the aforementioned situation. Before applying this patch: [root@localhost /]# cat /proc/acpi/alarm 2007-12-00 00:00:00 [root@localhost /]# echo "0000-00-00 96:180:180" > /proc/acpi/alarm [root@localhost /]# cat /proc/acpi/alarm 0007-12-02 **:**:** [root@localhost /]# After applying this patch: [root@localhost ~]# echo "2007-12-00 00:00:00" > /proc/acpi/alarm [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/acpi/alarm 2007-12-00 00:00:00 [root@localhost ~]# echo "0000-00-00 96:180:180" > /proc/acpi/alarm [root@localhost ~]# cat /proc/acpi/alarm 0007-12-04 03:03:00 [root@localhost ~]# Signed-off-by: Yi Yang <yi.y.yang@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Len Brown <len.brown@intel.com>
