[Xen-devel] Fix CMOS time error after writing /proc/acpi/alarm

["Chen, Huacai" <huacai.chen@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Keir

This patch is for Domain0.

When writing /proc/acpi/alarm in adjust mode, e.g. 
        echo "+0000-00-00 00:00:15" >/proc/acpi/alarm 
The "century" field should be read and added to "year" field before
writing, otherwise the CMOS time will go back to 2000 years ago, e.g.
        # cat /proc/acpi/alarm
        0008-06-21 11:38:46 
Then the system time may be reset to the date of manufacture after
rebooting. This patch fixed this issue.
