In theroy yes. The current system I use that all RTCs are managed by BBM
protocol. So only two RTCs are registered.

In case there is other RTCs that not managed BBM, the rtc_dev->id
will not be equal to bbm_rtc_id.

For example RTC1 is directly managed by Linux, RTC0 is managed by BBM.

The RTC1 is probed first, so its rtc_dev->id is 0. But from BBM protocol,
the RTC0 use id 0 for BBM SCMI server to handle the RTC0.

I maybe overthinking here. But to avoid potential issues, I would like to
keep bbm_rtc_id.
