Most likely you need to also reconfigure the registers or
re-enable the clock or reset it at the interconnect too.

Hmm so how is it enabled initially then?

To me it sounds like very standard stuff to reinitialize
a driver for any omap device when waking from suspend or
returning from off-idle. If the RTC device cannot be reset,
idled and re-initialized properly, there's something wrong
with the RTC driver, clocks, regulators, or hwmod data for
that device.

Tony
