There is no need to test for every tests of the suite, the check could
be done once. To be clear, you don't need to be root to access the RTC,
you need CAP_SYS_TIME and CAP_SYS_RESOURCE.

Yes, using RTC_PARAM_GET is ok but I'm pretty sure this is not solving
you are seeing following the efi patch you are pointing to.

The patch clears RTC_FEATURE_ALARM when the alarm is not present which
will ensure the ioctl fails and so the test will already be skipped. My
guess is that your ssue ias actually when the alarm is present and the
test will run and wait forever for an interrupt that will never come.
