Using "unsigned long" for UNIX timestamps is never a good idea, and
comparing the value of such a variable against U32_MAX does not do
anything useful on 32-bit systems.

Use the proper time64_t type when dealing with timestamps, and avoid
cutting down the time range unnecessarily. This also fixes the flawed
check for the alarm time being too far into the future.

The check for this condition is actually somewhat theoretical, as the
RTC counts till 2033 only anyways, and 2^32 seconds from now is not
before the year 2157 - at which point I hope nobody will be using this
hardware anymore.

Hi Alessandro, Alexandre,

I was wondering if you would consider taking this (as a fix)?
This (time_gap > U32_MAX) comparison looks flawed by design, and we should
use time_t these days anyway.

Also, do you have an opinion on the other RTC patches? The linear day
patch (v10 04/18)[1] and the broken-down alarm registers (v10 05/18)[2]
were on the list for a while now and are needed by other SoCs as well
(R329[3] and the RISC-V D1).

Cheers,
Andre
