Subject: [PATCH v6 05/16] x86, ACPI: move ACPI_FADT_NO_CMOS_RTC check to ACPI boot code

This moves the ACPI specific check into the ACPI boot code,
it also takes advantage of the x86_platform.legacy.rtc which
is checked for already on the RTC initialization code. This
lets us remove the nasty #ifdefery and consolidate the checks
to use only one toggle to disable the RTC init code.

The works as RTC is initialized by device_initcall(add_rtc_cmos),
this will run late in boot on start_kernel() during rest_init(),
acpi_parse_fadt() gets called earlier during setup_arch().
