[edk2-devel] [edk2-platforms PATCH 3/7] Hisilicon/M41T83RealTimeClockLib: remove superfluous instance init steps

RealTimeClockLib instances are consumed by edk2's
EmbeddedPkg/RealTimeClockRuntimeDxe driver. In its entry point function
InitializeRealTimeClock(), the driver:

(1) calls LibRtcInitialize(),

(2) sets the GetTime(), SetTime(), GetWakeupTime() and SetWakeupTime()
    runtime services to its own similarly-named functions -- where those
    functions wrap the corresponding RealTimeClockLib APIs,

(3) installs EFI_REAL_TIME_CLOCK_ARCH_PROTOCOL with a NULL protocol
    interface.

Steps (2) and (3) conform to PI v1.8 sections II-9.7.2.4 through
II-9.7.2.7.

However, this means that LibRtcInitialize() (of any RealTimeClockLib
instance) should not itself (a) set the GetTime(), SetTime(),
GetWakeupTime() and SetWakeupTime() runtime services, nor (b) install
EFI_REAL_TIME_CLOCK_ARCH_PROTOCOL. The runtime service pointers will be
overwritten in step (2) anyway, and step (3) will uselessly install a
second (NULL-interface) EFI_REAL_TIME_CLOCK_ARCH_PROTOCOL instance in the
protocol database. (The protocol only serves to notify the DXE Foundation
about said runtime services being available.)

Clean up Hisilicon/M41T83RealTimeClockLib accordingly (it only has code
that's redundant for step (2); it does not try to install
EFI_REAL_TIME_CLOCK_ARCH_PROTOCOL).

(Note that the lib instance INF file already does not list
UefiRuntimeServicesTableLib.)

Build-tested only (with the D06 platform).
