Public bug reported:

[Impact]
On some OpenPower systems, RTC does not support set_alarm, and 
timer_create(CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM, ...) will fail with ENOTSUPP instead of 
EOPNOTSUPP. This will break some regression testing that expects the later 
value.

[Test cases]
Run LTP syscalls regression testing, which we do before releasing kernels.

[Regression potential]
This should not break any userspace, as none should be using/expecting ENOTSUPP 
for any call. In order to do so, they would have to go out of their way as it's 
not defined on libc headers.
