Can you post your .config?  `grep RTC .config`
It would seem to me that drivers/rtc/hctosys.c is being compiled
without drivers/rtc/class.c which now holds the global variable, but
Kconfig says that RTC_HCTOSYS 'depends on RTC_CLASS = y'.

config RTC_HCTOSYS
	depends on RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE
Or, how do you depend on a string value being set?

config RTC_HCTOSYS_DEVICE
	depends on RTC_CLASS = y
