John Stultz aa0be0f465 RTC: Propagate error handling via rtc_timer_enqueue properly
In cases where RTC hardware does not support alarms, the virtualized
RTC interfaces did not have a way to propagate the error up to userland.

This patch extends rtc_timer_enqueue so it catches errors from the hardware
and returns them upwards to the virtualized interfaces. To simplify error
handling, it also internalizes the management of the timer->enabled bit
into rtc_timer_enqueue and rtc_timer_remove.

Also makes rtc_timer_enqueue and rtc_timer_remove static.
