This is utterly silly.  Why are you using memcpy() to access individual
bytes of a u8 pointer?  What's wrong with:

		sec = timestamp[0];
		min = timestamp[1];
		hour = timestamp[2];
		day = timestamp[4];
		mon = timestamp[5];
		year = timestamp[6];
		century = timestamp[7];

or even do the conversion here:

		sec = bcd2bin(timestamp[0]);
... etc ...

It's also a good idea to (as much as possible) keep to single printk()
statements - which makes the emission of the string more atomic wrt
other CPUs and contexts.  So, this should probably become (with the
conversion being done at the assignment of sec etc):

		printk("%stime: %7s %02d:%02d:%02d %02d%02d-%02d-%02d\n",
			pfx, 0x01 & timestamp[3] ? "precise" : "",
			hour, min, sec, century, year, mon, day);

which, IMHO, looks a lot nicer and doesn't risk some other printk()
getting between each individual part of the line.

Not sure why you have the "" here - %sError works just as well and the
"" is just obfuscation - the compiler will eliminate the double-double
quote and merge the strings anyway.
