SubjectRe: [PATCH] rtc-dev: stop periodic interrupts on device release
Hello,

The idea was that if the "real" ones get turned on using some ioctl magic the
framework has no exact control over, they shouldn't be shut down by it. But
yeah, your point of view looks fine as well.

So I guess I'll post the current patch to Andrew and then, someone (not me,
for time and competence reasons, sorry) can prepare a patch removing the
release op and changing the calls in framework's release to call
rtc_dev_ioctl.

Is this ok?
