I think that's ok because rtc_generic_{get,set}_time is only called
from the rtc_generic driver, but that is not registered when mach_hwclk()
is NULL.

With your patch to add the CONFIG_MMU check, you can actually
remove the mach_hwclk() symbol from setup_no.c, and move the
remaining RTC related symbols from setup_mm.c into the #ifdef.
