 The main and important parts of the PR were committed, so I am fine it
 with it closing.  Having kevents with gpio is a nice to have, but
 probably not a critical need to have sort of thing.  The /dev entry for
 dsrtc is just odd, as the code supports it, just nothing was ever
 committed to the majors file and MAKEDEV to have the /dev node created.
 Reading and writing the NVRAM works fine and can be a handy thing to
 have.
