Kernel 2.1.130 and later don't work on Ruffian with Enhanced RTC enabled
due to misdirecting the timer interrupt:
Up til 2.1.129 ruffian_device_interrupt() (arch/alpha/kernel/sys_ruffian.c)
did directly call timer_interrupt() on getting interrupt 0. Now it does
call handle_irq() with irq=8 (RTC). This is correct only when CONFIG_RTC
is not defined, else TIMER_IRQ is defined as 0 in arch/alpha/kernel/irq.c,
and timer_interrupt never is called.
