+ * through the rtc_*(struct rtc_device *, ...) calls.

+ * The (current) exceptions are mostly filesystem hooks:
+ * - the proc() hook for procfs
+ * - non-ioctl() chardev hooks: open(), release(), read_callback()
+ * - periodic irq calls: irq_set_state(), irq_set_freq()
+ *
+ * REVISIT those periodic irq calls *do* have ops_lock when they're
+ * issued through ioctl() ...
