SRU Justification
Impact: RTC can become non-functional
Patch Description: Disable the fallback clause in hwclock.c. It should never use direct I/O access unless explicitly requested as a command line option.
Patch: attached
Test Case:
#!/bin/bash let i=0 while [ $i -lt 10 ] do hwclock & let i=$i+1 done
