TQ-Systems' TQMa8Mx module (SoM) uses a pcf85063 as RTC. The default output
is 32768Hz. This is to provide the i.MX8M CKIL clock. Once the RTC driver
is probed, the clock is disabled and all i.MX8M functionality depending on
the 32 KHz clock will halt. In our case the whole system halts and a power
cycle is required.
Referencing the pcf85063 directly results in a deadlock. The kernel
will see, that i.MX8M system clock needs the RTC clock and do probe
deferral. But the i.MX8M I2C module never becomes usable without the
i.MX8M CKIL clock and thus the RTC's clock will not be probed. So
from the kernel's perspective this is a chicken-and-egg problem.
Technically everything is fine by not touching anything, since
the RTC clock correctly enables the clock on reset (i.e. on
battery backup power loss).
A workaround for this issue is describing the square wave pin
as fixed-clock, which is registered early and basically how
this pin is used on the i.MX8M.
This addresses the exact same issue as in commit f765e349c3 ("rtc:
m41t80: add support for fixed clock").

The Micro Crystal RV8263 has the same IC as the pcf85063 but has an on
board crystal. This means that the CAP_SEL bit has to be cleared so the
correct capacitance is selected for the crystal.

As stated in a comment pcf85063a and pcf85063tp don't have the same number
of registers. Especially, pcf85063tp doesn't have alarm support.

The NXP pcf85063 supports two different xtal load capacitance
- 7000fF (7pF) HW default, Linux driver default
- 12500fF (12.5pF) Minimum power consumption
To obtain a precise RTC the pcf85063 must be configured
with the correct capacitance load of the xtal.
Add a property to specify the xtal capacitance load.
The default value matches that of the current Linux driver.
