PATCH v2 1/1 rtc: bq4802: add sparc dependency

From: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]>

The added HAS_IOPORT dependency might not actually be necessary as Geert points out, but the driver is also only used on one architecture. Sparc is also a special case here since it converts port numbers into virtual addresses rather than having them mapped into a particular part of the __iomem address space, so the difference is actually not important here.

Add a dependency on sparc, but allow compile-testing otherwise, to make this clearer without anyone having to spend much time modernizing the driver beyond that.

In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker. But
when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
