However signed arithmetic is used within for calculations leading to incorrect results for input values outside the signed positive range. If this happens the time of day returned is out of range. Found the problem when fiddling with the RTC and the driver where year was set to an unexpectedly large value like 2070, e.g.: rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 1193046:71582832:26 UTC (3155760954) while it should be: rtc0: setting system clock to 2070-01-01 00:15:54 UTC (3155760954) Changing types to unsigned fixes the problem.
