Maybe it doesn't look good. I found this (the message is in French,
but the quoted part says it all): if CONFIG_HPET_RTC_IRQ is defined,
then RTC_IRQ is undefined which in turn leads to the failing ioctl().

<http://www.guilde.asso.fr/lurker/message/20041105.180307.b02820a2.en.html>

include/asm-i386/mc146818rtc.h :

    #define RTC_IRQ 8

drivers/char/rtc.c :

    #ifdef CONFIG_HPET_RTC_IRQ
    #undef RTC_IRQ
    #endif

.config :

    CONFIG_HPET=y
    CONFIG_HPET_RTC_IRQ=y

drivers/char/Kconfig :

    config HPET
        bool "HPET - High Precision Event Timer" if (X86 || IA64)
        default n
        depends on ACPI_INTERPRETER
        help
          If you say Y here, you will have a miscdevice named
          "/dev/hpet/". Each open selects one of the timers supported
          by the HPET. The timers are non-periodioc and/or periodic.

    config HPET_RTC_IRQ
        bool "HPET Control RTC IRQ" if !HPET_EMULATE_RTC
        default n
        depends on HPET
        help
          If you say Y here, you will disable RTC_IRQ in
          drivers/char/rtc.c. It is assumed the platform called
          hpet_alloc with the RTC IRQ values for the HPET timers.
