When using RTC_ALM_SET or RTC_WKALM_SET with rtc_wkalrm.enabled not set, rtc_timer_enqueue() is not called and rtc_set_alarm() may succeed but the subsequent RTC_AIE_ON ioctl will fail. RTC_ALM_READ would also fail in that case. Ensure rtc_set_alarm() fails when alarms are not supported to avoid letting programs think the alarms are working for a particular RTC when they are not.
