This looks dubious to me, or at least the explanation of it does.  The
other branch of the conditional is covering different registers in the
device, which are part of the RTC component, rather than the NVRAM
area.  I wouldn't necessarily expect them to persist data as a rule
the way the rest of the block does, even if this specific bit does
need to be preserved.
