RTC: Add a routine to check if the CMOS date is valid
If the CMOS is cleared or someone writes some random date/time
on purpose, the CMOS date register has a invalid date. This will
hurts some OS, like Windows 7, which hangs at MS logo forever.
When we detect that, we need to write a reasonable date in CMOS.
Alexandru Gagniuc:
Hmm, it would be interesting to use the date the coreboot image
was built and set that as the default date. At least until time
travel is invented.
