Weird. No luck here with current linux next or anything.

I'm not seeing the RTC second increase in u-boot either, this
should show it:

# i2c md 0x48 0x100

Of course the rtc may not be enabled in u-boot unlike for x15.

Or something hangs the RTC? And the back-up battery has to drain to
reset the RTC somehow?
