No. With the side of Hell, No. This is bloody ridiculous - take a look
at rtc_dev_ioctl(). Seriously. Relevant bits:
struct rtc_device *rtc = file->private_data;
const struct rtc_class_ops *ops = rtc->ops;
struct rtc_time tm;
struct rtc_wkalrm alarm;
void __user *uarg = (void __user *) arg;
err = mutex_lock_interruptible(&rtc->ops_lock);
if (err)
return err;
err = put_user(rtc->irq_freq, (unsigned long __user *)uarg);
mutex_unlock(&rtc->ops_lock);
return err;
That's RTC_IRQP_READ. IOW, all that song and dance starting with
compat_alloc_user_space() is just a way to get to rtc->irq_freq value.
RTC_EPOCH_READ is in the bowels of individual implementations, but it's
otherwise very similar; add a method returning the damn thing (e.g.
rtc->ops->get_epoch(rtc)) and lift its call into rtc_dev_ioctl(), then
this nonsense will go away as well.

ITYM

break;

... and
cmd = RTC_EPOCH_SET;
break;
here.

compat_alloc_user_space() is usually papering over bogosities like
that; if you are moving something out to individual drivers, it's
always a red flag - most of the time it'll turn out to be pointless.
