Looks ok in principle. Have you tested that it builds? Some questions

This seems like a functional change -- whereas previously the
null_rtc_get_time case left *tm unchanged, now the function gets
called and junk gets filled in. Is that desired?

Also the return value is changed. Is this correct?

Why checking rtc_sh_set_time for a null pointer? null_rtc_set_time is
not a null pointer but a dummy function that's always safe to call, I
think.

Not a complaint about your patch, but I'd like to get rid of this
platform device and abstraction layer completely since it doesn't seem
like something that can be modeled correctly in device tree. When
you're done cleaning this up, will it be possible to just have rtc
drivers that use whatever generic framework is left, where the right
driver is automatically attached to compatible DT nodes? I'm trying to
move all of arch/sh over to device tree and remove hard-coded platform
devices.
