Virtual Machines provided by qemu for arm are already equipped with RTCdevice (PL031). With this patch set, PL031 driver is converted to driver model and by default enabled on qemu-arm. It allows us not only to use date command but also to enable UEFI's GetTime/SetTime() services.
This work is motivated by running UEFI SCT(Self-Certification Test) and measuring time. Heinrich has already posted UEFI's GetTime() implementation.
This is a revised version of my proposal[1].

Changes in v4 (Sep 14, 2018) * rebased to v2018.09-rc as my v3 was incompletely merged * drop v3's patch#1 * remove duplicated CONFIG_RTC_PL031 and CONFIG_SYS_RTC_PL031_BASE
Changes in v3 (July 11, 2018) * compile drivers/rtc/date.c if DM_RTC * rename pl031_rtc_xxx to pl031_xxx * make struct pl031_platdata private to the driver * add probe function, removing pl031_initted variable * use readl/writel() instead of private macros * add a debug message to pl031_rtc_set() * remove CONFIG_SYS_RTC_PL031_BASE from config_whitelist.txt * enable RTC_PL031 for QEMU_ARM in arch/arm/Kconfig
Changes in v2 (July 4, 2018) * based on Heinrich's comments, * remove legacy mode interface * enable the driver in defconfig
