OK, this is super annoying we unfortunately can't change what was done
previously without breaking the DT ABI. Honestly, I suspect the 12.5pF
value is wrong for most boards anyway.

What I would do is use the value from DT (so either 7000fF or 12500fF)
and set it if present.
If not present, set 12.5pF and print a warning that this differs from
the RTC default.

Hopefully, at some point, we could leave it as it is as the value should
persist across reboot.
