   This is strongly not recommended.  On HP chipset boxes, the devices
are only designed to be accessed via the EFI calls (and yes, EFI
firmware can and does work around bugs in the RTC).  There's also no
architected way to find the real RTC in the address map.  Why do you
need to poke it directly?
