Alexandre Mergnat fe9f5f96cf rtc: Fix offset calculation for .start_secs < 0
The comparison

        rtc->start_secs > rtc->range_max

has a signed left-hand side and an unsigned right-hand side.
So the comparison might become true for negative start_secs which is
interpreted as a (possibly very large) positive value.

As a negative value can never be bigger than an unsigned value
the correct representation of the (mathematical) comparison

        rtc->start_secs > rtc->range_max

in C is:

        rtc->start_secs >= 0 && rtc->start_secs > rtc->range_max

Use that to fix the offset calculation currently used in the
rtc-mt6397 driver.
