Well, I think it's a completely natural thing to expose a fixed and
known update_interval as a 0444 property, and it might even be useful to
userspace to know that there's no point reading the sensor any more
often than that. And I didn't come up with this by myself, there's
already at least a couple of instances of a 0444 update_interval.

I'll leave it to the RTC maintainers to decide, it's easy enough to remove.
