Hello,

I see that you have reported this bug to bugzilla.kernel.org as 4904 [0]. The solution which has been committed to git on August 4th involves setting the value of HPET_EMULATE_RTC to yes if HPET_TIMER and RTC are configured. I guess we could have enabled that too, however currently HPET_EMULATE_RTC is only going to be set if RTC is compiled in:

 config HPET_EMULATE_RTC
        bool
        depends on HPET_TIMER && RTC=y
        default y

This is a problem since in Debian RTC is traditionally compiled as a module and changing it to be built-in now seems as a rather intrusive change. I'll try post a follow-up to the bug asking for opinions of kernel developers and Debian kernel team on how to resolve this.
