Excuse me for slow response.

As you and John discovered, this driver do not support alarm
completely.  This driver just can set/read alarm date/time, but RTC
interrupt is not implemented yet.

So possible solutions would be:

* Implement RTC irq handler. (Now we have threaded-irq so it would be
easier than the past)
* Drop .set_alarm function. (i.e. drop whole alarm codes)

I cannot test this driver by myself, but I will take a look if you had
any fix.  Thank you.
