@Peter Maydell this has been reviewed, do you mind taking this in you
next PR? I don't see a maintainer for hw/rtc.

Generally devices used by a single architecture should
go via the tree of the maintainer who handles that
architecture -- in this case that's riscv. (The reason
is that it's only riscv folks who can test whether the
device works in the machine model, and only riscv
folks who can reasonably review whether the device
is the right way of implementing the functionality for
them.)

OK, I'm taking it via the RISC-V tree.  I'll send the PR for 4.3.
