Saurabh's initial version of the code did define its own version of
get/set_rtc_noop(). I had suggested that he use the existing functions
from x86 generic code, and KY had also commented about re-using
existing code wherever possible. :-) My suggestion was partly because
the VTL code is already re-using x86_init_noop(), and then just to avoid
code duplication. Admittedly, there's not much code being duplicated
in these stub functions. I slightly prefer re-using the existing functions,
but don't feel strongly about it.
