MIPS: Malta: Don't reinitialise RTC
On Malta, since commit a87ea88d8f6c ("MIPS: Malta: initialise the RTC at boot"), the RTC is reinitialised and forced into binary coded decimal (BCD) mode during init, even if the bootloader has already initialised it, and may even have already put it into binary mode (as YAMON does). This corrupts the current time, can result in the RTC seconds being an invalid BCD (e.g. 0x1a..0x1f) for up to 6 seconds, as well as confusing YAMON for a while after reset, enough for it to report timeouts when attempting to load from TFTP (it actually uses the RTC in that code). Therefore only initialise the RTC to the extent that is necessary so that Linux avoids interfering with the bootloader setup, while also allowing it to estimate the CPU frequency without hanging, without a bootloader necessarily having done anything with the RTC (for example when the kernel is loaded via EJTAG). The divider control is configured for a 32KHZ reference clock if necessary, and the SET bit of the RTC_CONTROL register is cleared if necessary without changing any other bits (this bit will be set when coming out of reset if the battery has been disconnected).
