Note for later: qmp_rtc_notify() works on all realized mc146818rtc
devices. Other kinds of RTC devices are silently ignored. Just like
qmp_rtc_reset_reinjection().
IMO to avoid any future ambiguity (in heterogeneous machines), this
command must take a QOM device path (or a list of) and only notify
those.
If you disagree, at least please rename the command/method using
"broadcast" for trailer.
