A general comment, probably made by Arnd already, why not using the relaxed
accessors ?

This is making me feel a bit uncomfortable. What if a single kernel is built for
both SA1100 and PXA, and used in a PXA platform (as this drivers is also used in
pxa2xx and pxa3xx) ?

And just for your information, both rtc-sa1100 and rtc-pxa can be used at the
same time in a pxa kernel.

Apart from that worry it's quite nice.

Cheers.
