The goal of the RTC alarm is to wakeup or poweron. If you don't want to
wakeup, you simply don't set an alarm. If it is already set, then you
simply unset it. If you want an application to do something at a
particular time, I hope you are not using the rtc but a timer with
TIMER_ABSTIME. This will do exactly what you want.
