bcd2bin(0x0A) happily returns 10, despite this being an invalid BCD value. RTC drivers converting possibly corrupted BCD timestamps might want to validate their input before calling bcd2bin(). Provide a macro to do so. Unlike bcd2bin and bin2bcd, out-of-line versions are not implemented. Should the macro experience enough use, this can be retrofitted.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
