Yes if an alarm is programmed without set_time.

ex: rtcwake -d /dev/rtc0 -s 5

Even the basic rtctest under tools/testing/selftests/timers/rtctest.c fails
as the wday is wrong and no alarm fires.

Instead of relying on some one to call set_time before programming alarm 
its better to fix the wday to reflect the current day right?
