That interesting.  As Paul mentioned the proposed patch would remove the unused 
code supporting the RTC on the m5441x, however, I do have an updated 
(v3.15-rc5) version of the RTC driver as well as updated versions of the 1wire 
driver that I had submiited a couple of years ago, also a much simplier version 
of the patches to enable the enet-fec that I had posted previously.  I've also 
been looking at getting the eDMA working with an eye on adding support for the 
dspi.

As it didnt seem there was much interest in the platform I hadn't felt any need 
to try to get these merged, but if there is actually anyone besides myself 
interested in the m5441x I'd be a bit more motivated.
