Summary

New common routines were added to kern/subr_clock.c for converting between calendrical time expressed in BCD and struct timespec. The new functions return EINVAL on error, as expected when the clock hardware does not provide valid time.

Test Plan

This code compiles, but has not been tested yet on any x86 hardware (or emulation).

Code has now been run-tested (see PR 224813).

Event Timeline

Follow changes in D13730... the conversion routines now take a bool flag to indicate whether AM/PM mode conversions need to be done. atrtc always operates in 24-hour mode.
