I wanted to be able to instanciate it with isa_create_simple(isa_bus, 
"mc146818rtc") in machine init code.
I don't see any good reason why a rtc created this way can't work.

The commit message can be changed to:
"rtc: initialize irq even if caller doesn't use rtc_init() function
rtc instancianted with isa_create_simple() has now a working irq line"
if you prefer...
