Tools like hwclock attempt to enable the RTC update interrupt (UIE) to maximize the accuracy of the reported time value. The EFI rtc does not have interrupt capability so this is a pointless exercise to begin with, but the generic RTC framework ends up issuing a SetWakeupTime() Runtime Services call before drawing that conclusion on its own. Instead, we can mark UIE as unsupported at driver probe time. The net result is the same, but without the spurious SetWakeupTime() call.
