Subject: BUG: 2.6.14-rc2 sets the wrong time in NVRAM on PowerMac G5

Hello,

At shutdown, kernel 2.6.14-rc2 saves the wrong value in the hardware
clock, since at next bootup I get 21 August 1987.

I have narrowed the range down to:
   2.6.14-rc1 is good
   2.6.14-rc1-git1 is bad.

Also, the 2.6.14-rcX does not power off the machine at shutdown.
2.6.13 did work fine.

   florin@zeus$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
   processor       : 0
   cpu             : PPC970FX, altivec supported
   clock           : 2700.000000MHz
   revision        : 3.1

   processor       : 1
   cpu             : PPC970FX, altivec supported
   clock           : 2700.000000MHz
   revision        : 3.1

   timebase        : 33333333
   machine         : PowerMac
   detected as     : 336 (PowerMac G5)
   pmac flags      : 00000000
   pmac-generation : NewWorld

   florin@zeus$ dmesg | grep "Linux version"
   Linux version 2.6.14-rc2 (root@zeus) (gcc version 4.0.2 20050808
   (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.0.1-4ubuntu8)) #1 SMP Tue Sep 20 17:24:52
   CDT 2005

Please let me know if you need more info, or want me to try a patch.

Thank you,
florin
