This is so ugly and should have never passed. I went weak in front of
Antoniu's insistance but I'm very close from ripping out the whole
driver from the kernel now.

Seriously, read all the comments that have been made around the IRQ/clk
stuff and come back with a proper solution.

Do I get this right that this is about enabling its own output clock?
Why would you need to do that? Something else must be the consumer, not
the provider itself.

This is not true, the RTC is always a clock provider. What is not
possible is muxing the clock on the pin in a few configurations.
