Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] alarmtimer: Update alarmtimer_get_rtcdev() docs to reflect reality

This function doesn't do anything like this comment says when an RTC
device hasn't been chosen. It looks like we used to do something like
that before commit 8bc0dafb5cf3 ("alarmtimers: Rework RTC device
selection using class interface") but that's long gone now. Remove this
sentence to avoid confusing the reader.
