After thinking about this more, I'm not sure it's right to do anything more than the "remove legacy probe checks" patch already does. Can you think of any harm in having the oscillator running with bogus register values? Calls to get_time() will return -EINVAL, but that seems to be the norm for any "bad time" condition. It makes me think that resetting to a sane time is putting more policy than desired in the driver.
