Requires a separate RTC_PIE_ON call to enable the periodic
interrupts.
* RTC_VL_READ: Read the voltage inputs status of the RTC when
supported. The value is a bit field of RTC_VL_*, giving the
status of the main and backup voltages.
* RTC_VL_CLEAR: Clear the voltage status of the RTC. Some RTCs
need user interaction when the backup power provider is
replaced or charged to be able to clear the status.
The ioctl() calls supported by the older /dev/rtc interface are
