Sascha Hauer e5c594233f rtc: rv8803: invalidate date/time if alarm time is invalid
RTC core never calls rv8803_set_alarm with an invalid alarm time,
so if an invalid alarm time > 0 is set, external factors must have
corrupted the RTC's alarm time and possibly other registers.

Play it safe by marking the date/time invalid, so all registers are
reinitialized on a ->set_time.

This may cause existing setups to lose time if they so far set only
date/time, but ignored that the alarm registers had an invalid date
value, e.g.:

  rtc rtc0: invalid alarm value: 2020-3-27 7:82:0

These systems will have their ->get_time return -EINVAL till
->set_time initializes the alarm value (and sets a new time).
