+ Motorola mc146818 compatible RTC
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible : "motorola,mc146818"
+  - reg : should contain registers location and length.
+
+Optional properties:
+  - interrupts : should contain interrupt.
+  - ctrl-reg : Contains the initial value of the control register also
+    called "Register B".
+  - freq-reg : Contains the initial value of the frequency register also
+    called "Regsiter A".
+
+"Register A" and "B" are usually initialized by the firmware (BIOS for
+instance). If this is not done, it can be performed by the driver.
+
+ISA Example:
+
+	rtc@70 {
+	         compatible = "motorola,mc146818";
+	         interrupts = <8 3>;
+	         interrupt-parent = <&ioapic1>;
+	         ctrl-reg = <2>;
+	         freq-reg = <0x26>;
+	         reg = <1 0x70 2>;
+	 };
