Hi Baolin and sh maintainers.

I have done a similar patch but never got around to posting it. Please
see my patch below.

Note that the patch is whitespace broken, I can send a proper
version to the sh maintainers if they want to merge it, or I can
apply my patch to my y2038 tree myself.

    sh: remove unused rtc_sh_get/set_time infrastructure

    All platforms are now converted to RTC drivers, so this has become
    obsolete. The board_time_init() callback still has one caller, but
    could otherwise also get killed.

    This removes one more usage of the deprecated timespec structure,
    which overflows in y2038.

In principle this looks correct, but I don't think all the drivers
have been converted. I did a quick grep for where board_time_init is
set, and found mach-dreamcast and mach-sh03 boards have rtc drivers
that set rtc_sh_[gs]et_time pointers. These need to be converted to
proper rtc drivers, I think.

The of-generic board also uses board_time_init, but only to call the
arch-independent timer_probe which uses devicetree to get
clocksource/clockevent devices. This probe should probably be moved to
the place where board_timer_init is called, right?

Ah, of course. I fished the one patch out of my stash of unsubmitted
patches, but missed the fact that I had three of them, the other ones
converting sh03 and dreamcast, respectively. ;-)

Let me send all three for proper review then.

Good idea. My patches don't do that, but that seems like a
good follow-up.
