    x86: fix RTC lockdep warning: potential hardirq recursion
    
    After disabling both CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS and netconsole
    (using current mainline) I get a login prompt, and also...

    Because hpet_rtc_interrupt()'s call to get_rtc_time() ends up
    resolving to include/asm-generic/rtc.h's (hilariously inlined)
    get_rtc_time(), which does spin_unlock_irq() from hard IRQ context.
    
    The obvious patch fixes it.
