Christian Ehrhardt bff3f51d13 rtc: extend check for RTCs that don't support interrupts ...

Several RTCs would only expose the broken behavior on enabling
interrupts. The reason for that is that the kernel only returns the
error if the state changes. Therefore the check has to probe
switch_interrupts(1) as well.

On platforms that work it will be switched on and off, while on those it
never works it will just stay off.

Clocks known to expose that behavior include, but are not limited to:
PPC64# dmesg | grep -i rtc   
[    0.241872] rtc-generic rtc-generic: registered as rtc0
[    0.270221] rtc-generic rtc-generic: setting system clock to ...
ARM64# dmesg | grep -i rtc
[    0.876198] rtc-efi rtc-efi: registered as rtc0
[    1.046869] rtc-efi rtc-efi: setting system clock to ...
