arm64: statically link rtc-efi

[dann frazier]

[Impact]
The rtc-hctosys driver currently fails to set the system clock on arm64/efi platforms because rtc-efi is built as a module.

[Test Case]
if dmesg | grep -q 'rtc-efi: setting system clock'; then
  PASS
else
  FAIL
fi

[Regression Risk]
This is just a config change, and one that we used to ship in utopic and trusty w/ no known regressions.
