Some problems with reading the RTC time may happen rarely, for example
while the RTC is updating. So read the RTC many times to catch these
problems. For example, a previous attempt for my
commit ea6fa4961a ("rtc: mc146818-lib: fix RTC presence check")
was incorrect and would have triggered this selftest.
To avoid the risk of damaging the hardware, wait 11ms before consecutive
reads.
In rtc_time_to_timestamp I copied values manually instead of casting -
just to be on the safe side. The 11ms wait period was chosen so that it is
not a divisor of 1000ms.
