PATCH 1/1 sparc: remove the useless APM_RTC_IS_GMT option

I can't see any effect of this option outside the i386-specific APM code.

Doesn't the Javastation potentially use this?

I don't know whether the Javastation supports APM, but the whole APM code in the kernel is currently only available on i386.

       "Is there not promise of rain?" Ling Tan asked suddenly out
        of the darkness. There had been need of rain for many days.
       "Only a promise," Lao Er said.
