Hello,

with the current git kernel I run 
$>make ARCH=um menuconfig

and searched for the string "RTC" b/c during boot of my UML image I realized nowadays \
the message:

"Kernel not built with RTC support, ALARM timers will not wake from suspend"

Although the menuconfig gives me the answer :

  │ Symbol: STMMAC_RTC_TIMER [=n]                                                   \
│     │ Type  : boolean                                                           \
│     │ Prompt: Real time clock                                                   \
│     │   Defined at drivers/net/stmmac/Kconfig:50                                \
│     │   Depends on: <choice> && RTC_CLASS                                       \
│     │   Location:                                                               \
│     │     -> Network device support (NETDEVICES [=y])                           \
│     │       -> Ethernet (1000 Mbit) (NETDEV_1000 [=n])                          \
│     │         -> STMicroelectronics 10/100/1000 Ethernet driver (STMMAC_ETH \
[=n])                                     │     │           -> STMMAC Timer \
optimisation (STMMAC_TIMER [=n])                                                      \
│     │             -> Select Timer device (<choice> [=n])                        \
│   


I cannot found the menu item.

To sum it up IMO the kernel mesage doesn't makes sense for UML
and furthermore searching for "RTC" shouldn't give non-existent menu items, isn't it \
?
