[PATCH] rtc: Fix hwclock write fail problem in x86 arch

[Jingxian He]

When RTC_ALWAYS_BCD is set as 1, the function mc146818_set_time
ignores the reading value of RTC_CONTROL register,
and assumes that RTC always operates in binary mode.

However, the mc146818 development manual says that:
if !(CMOS_READ(RTC_CONTROL) & 0x04), then
the rtc time is in binary mode;
if (CMOS_READ(RTC_CONTROL) & 0x04), then
the rtc time is in bcd mode.

We use 'hwclock -w' to set the RTC from the system time
at our x86 machines, and we find that when 
(CMOS_READ(RTC_CONTROL) & 0x04) is equal to 1,
'hwclock -w' will fail to set the RTC.

We change the RTC_ALWAYS_BCD to 0 to parse the rtc
time according to the read value of RTC_CONTROL register.
