Having !allow_set_time is equivalent to non-implemented set_time
function, which is normally represented with -ENODEV error in RTC
subsystem.

Today we are returning -EACCES error code, which is not considered
by RTC clients as a 'non implemented' feature, and which causes NTP
to retry hw clk sync (update_rtc) indefinitely.
