Sorry about the slow response. Had some memory issues with the testbox.
On SUN4D machines there is one RTC-chip located on each systemboard, when
booting all of these will be probed. Registering a second RTC with the
kernel fails, and breaks the rtc:

Later on in the boot the following happens:
[ 23.116000] drivers/rtc/hctosys.c: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)
The suggested fix searches the supplied RTC node for a address property
which only one RTC per system appears to have and registers only this RTC
with the kernel. (Tested on SS20/SUN4M and SS1000E/SUN4D).
