[PATCH 10/10] RTC: Fix up rtc.txt documentation to reflect changes to generic rtc layer

[John Stultz <john.stultz@linaro.org>]

Now that the genric RTC layer handles much of the RTC functionality,
the rtc.txt documentation needs to be updated to remove outdated information.

 In many cases, the RTC alarm can be a system wake event, used to force
 Linux out of a low power sleep state (or hibernation) back to a fully
 operational state.  For example, a system could enter a deep power saving
 state until it's time to execute some scheduled tasks.
 
-Note that many of these ioctls need not actually be implemented by your
-driver.  The common rtc-dev interface handles many of these nicely if your
-driver returns ENOIOCTLCMD.  Some common examples:
