Probably this subject should be "rtc: da9052" not 63.

But they kind of use the same functions anyway.
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/include/linux/rtc.h?h=v4.12-rc6#n35
And I think they they are abstracted on purpose.

The DA9052/53 hardware can only handle alarms up to the end of 2063.

Steve
