No, I suppose s/rtc/mips-rtc/ is what the original patch means.

By the way, with this patch, individual board can not implement it's
own genrtc routines.  How about making gen_rtc_time, etc. pointer to
functions to allow overrides?

I think implementing rtc_get_time (mips specific) with get_rtc_time
(genrtc) is more efficient than implementing get_rtc_time with
rtc_get_time for most RTC chips.
