      powerpc: Remove broken GregorianDay() · 00b912b0
      Daniel Axtens 提交于
      GregorianDay() is supposed to calculate the day of the week
      (tm->tm_wday) for a given day/month/year. In that calcuation it
      indexed into an array called MonthOffset using tm->tm_mon-1. However
      tm_mon is zero-based, not one-based, so this is off-by-one. It also
      means that every January, GregoiranDay() will access element -1 of
      the MonthOffset array.
      
      It also doesn't appear to be a correct algorithm either: see in
      contrast kernel/time/timeconv.c's time_to_tm function.
      
      It's been broken forever, which suggests no-one in userland uses
      this. It looks like no-one in the kernel uses tm->tm_wday either
      (see e.g. drivers/rtc/rtc-ds1305.c:319).
      
      tm->tm_wday is conventionally set to -1 when not available in
      hardware so we can simply set it to -1 and drop the function.
      (There are over a dozen other drivers in drivers/rtc that do
      this.)
      
      Found using UBSAN.
