While the EFI spec mandates an RTC, not every implementation actually adheres to that rule (or can adhere to it - some systems just don't have an RTC). For those, we really don't want to probe the EFI RTC driver at all, because if we do we'd get a non-functional driver that does nothing useful but only spills our kernel log with warnings.
