rtc.txt: standardize document format

Browse Source 
Each text file under Documentation follows a different
format. Some doesn't even have titles!

Change its representation to follow the adopted standard,
using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx:

- adjust identation of the titles;
- mark a table as such;
- don't capitalize chapter names.

the system clock from the discrete RTC, but use the integrated one for all
other tasks, because of its greater functionality.
SYSFS INTERFACE
SYSFS interface
---------------
The sysfs interface under /sys/class/rtc/rtcN provides access to various
rtc attributes without requiring the use of ioctls. All dates and times
are in the RTC's timezone, rather than in system time.

hctosys: 1 if the RTC provided the system time at boot via the

wakealarm The time at which the clock will generate a system wakeup
event. This is a one shot wakeup event, so must be reset
after wake if a daily wakeup is required. Format is seconds since
the epoch by default, or if there's a leading +, seconds in the

offset The amount which the rtc clock has been adjusted in firmware.
Visible only if the driver supports clock offset adjustment.
The unit is parts per billion, i.e. The number of clock ticks
which are added to or removed from the rtc's base clock per
billion ticks. A positive value makes a day pass more slowly,
longer, and a negative value makes a day pass more quickly.

The ioctl() calls supported by /dev/rtc are also supported by the RTC class
