Are you saying that a single device tree is used for multiple models?
That should not be the case.

But it looks like there are only two device trees defined for Cubox, one
for those with the i.MX6DL and one for the i.MX6Q.  Both of which enable
both RTCs!

So you're right, we can't just disable the non-battery-backed RTC for
this one model.
