If you're root then that seems odd. The only things I would have
thought likely to do that are the permissions on /dev/rtc which
should be irrelevant as root can open any file. The other thing
would be the dev.rtc.max-user-freq kernel configuration value but
that only limits non-root users.
Maybe your kernel (or your hardware) has some hard limit on the
setting of the RTC frequency?
