Implement a custom sysfs interface instead.
I would very much like to see this driver be implemented as a degenerate RTC driver because this sorts of maps pretty well to the "rtcwake" use mode, and this is a persistent clock source, and even a clock source as well (I would rather avoid going the MFD route to expose these 3 "functions" though).
