I did a few hundred randconfig builds with the patch and have
not yet seen any further problems.

This is what's in the header file:

#ifdef CONFIG_SOC_HAS_REALTIME_COUNTER
extern void omap5_realtime_timer_init(void);
#else
static inline void omap5_realtime_timer_init(void)
{
}
#endif

In fact, the inline stub is what that caused the regression,
so I think it's ok with my patch.
