Please note that the same issue appears to have been introduced in the recent 4.2.7 kernel. It perhaps has to do with b4ff8389ed14b849354b59ce9b360bdefcdbf99c having a matching commit e8d097151d309eb71f750bbf34e6a7ef6256da7e in linux-stable.git. The below patch to arch/x86/kernel/rtc.c was also effective for 4.2.7.
