Setting the system time seems to be done in the new RTC class by a
late_initcall() in drivers/rtc/hctosys.c. In fact, it could even be done
in userspace.
NTP uses update_persistent_clock() and doesn't seem to have been
'solved' yet for the new RTC class. I don't think there's any particular
reason for it to do i2c stuff in that context though.
