I suspect this will break on machines which have an RTC and the
interrupt line is not connected. 

These are PreP machines like MVME2[467]xxx (I have a bunch of them,
stilll running 2.2 kernels but on a private network). 
Interrupt 8 is connected, but not to the RTC...

I have no problems with the patch going in for now, it will have
to be revisited whenever (if ever) support for these machines is added
to the kernel (what is really needed to support these machines is a
residual data->device tree converter).
