This moves the ACPI specific check into the ACPI boot code, it also takes advantage of the x86_platform.legacy.rtc which is checked for already on the RTC initialization code. This lets us remove the nasty #ifdefery and consolidate the checks to use only one toggle to disable the RTC init code. The works as RTC is initialized by device_initcall(add_rtc_cmos), this will run late in boot on start_kernel() during rest_init(), acpi_parse_fadt() gets called earlier during setup_arch().
