selftests/rtc: continuously read RTC in a loop for 30s Some problems with reading the RTC time may happen rarely, for example while the RTC is updating. So read the RTC many times to catch these problems. For example, a previous attempt for my commit ea6fa4961aab ("rtc: mc146818-lib: fix RTC presence check") was incorrect and would have triggered this selftest. To avoid the risk of damaging the hardware, wait 11ms before consecutive reads. In rtc_time_to_timestamp I copied values manually instead of casting - just to be on the safe side. The 11ms wait period was chosen so that it is not a divisor of 1000ms.
