This reverts commit 0ef1594c01.
This patch introduced a few races which cannot be easily fixed with a
small follow-up patch. Furthermore, the SoC with the broken hardware
register, which this patch intended to add support for, can only be used
with device trees, which this driver currently does not support.

On some revisions of AT91 SoCs, the RTC IMR register is not working.
Instead of elaborating a workaround for that specific SoC or IP version,
we simply use a software variable to store the Interrupt Mask Register
and modify it for each enabling/disabling of an interrupt. The overhead
of this is negligible anyway.
The interrupt mask register (IMR) for the RTC is broken on the AT91SAM9x5
sub-family of SoCs (good overview of the members here:
http://www.eewiki.net/display/linuxonarm/AT91SAM9x5 ). The "user visible
effect" is the RTC doesn't work.
That sub-family is less than two years old and only has devicetree (DT)
support and came online circa lk 3.7 . The dust is yet to settle on the
DT stuff at least for AT91 SoCs (translation: lots of stuff is still
broken, so much that it is hard to know where to start).
The fix in the patch is pretty simple: just shadow the silicon IMR
register with a variable in the driver. Some older SoCs (pre-DT) use the
the rtc-at91rm9200 driver (e.g. obviously the AT91RM9200) and they should
not be impacted by the change. There shouldn't be a large volume of
interrupts associated with a RTC.
