x86: fix RTC lockdep warning: potential hardirq recursion

After disabling both CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS and netconsole
(using current mainline) I get a login prompt, and also...

Because hpet_rtc_interrupt()'s call to get_rtc_time() ends up

get_rtc_time(), which does spin_unlock_irq() from hard IRQ context.

The obvious patch fixes it.
