Bug description:
  [Impact]
  On some OpenPower systems, RTC does not support set_alarm, and timer_create(CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM, ...) will fail with ENOTSUPP instead of EOPNOTSUPP. This will break some regression testing that expects the later value.

  [Test cases]
  Run LTP syscalls regression testing, which we do before releasing kernels.

  [Regression potential]
  This should not break any userspace, as none should be using/expecting ENOTSUPP for any call. In order to do so, they would have to go out of their way as it's not defined on libc headers.
