Qualcomm x1e80100 firmware sets the ownership of the RTC alarm to ADSP.
Thus writing to RTC alarm registers and receiving alarm interrupts is not
possible.

Add a no-alarm flag to support RTC on this platform.

This is not even properly used/tested, because you disable the RTC
entirely in your DTS.


What? The next patch in this series is enabling RTC on x1e using this flag

I expect here unified property for all Qualcomm devices for this case.
We already have "remotely-controlled" and other flavors. I don't want
each device to express the same with different name...

Also: missing vendor prefix.


I don't care what the property is named (as long as its a bool property), if you have a name you prefer I will use it.

The existing 'allow-set-time' property (also related to HLOS permissions to the RTC) is also specific to this driver doesn't have a vendor prefix.
