Thanks for review, my comments/answers below.

It's in maintainer's tree which has it the same. And most probably it
would go the same (since commit includes timestamps). I never heard
before of such issues (unless someone *rebased* tree for linux-next).

Why? What's wrong with arch setup code?
From the description of that hook I didn't find it suitable in this
case.

...also I have no idea when exactly it will happen during
initialization. The RTC setup is kinda sensitive to what platform might
or might not have.

I agree that's not nice looking piece of code, but this due to absence
of some stubs. IOAPIC code is really old one and misses stuff (proper
error codes, stubs for no IOAPIC case).

So, I'm open to suggestions. Can you write down a skeleton which module
should contain what and their point of initialization in time with
regarding to RTC?
