The #ifdef was avoided because the real-time counter can be used on 
other future SOCs. And the those SOCs just select
SOC_HAS_REALTIME_COUNTER. And that stub was added because OMAP5 can
work without real-time counter configuration enabled using 32K counter.
But since we are any way have that SOC_HAS_REALTIME_COUNTER always
set for SOC which wants to use it, we can actually remove the stub
and hence avoid the warning. Let me know if below patch is ok
with you ? attached the same for mailer issues

In commit fa6d79d (ARM: OMAP: Add initialisation for the real-time
counter), the function realtime_counter_init() was added. However, if
the kernel configuration option CONFIG_SOC_OMAP5 is not selected then
the following compiler warning is observed.

     CC      arch/arm/mach-omap2/timer.o
     arch/arm/mach-omap2/timer.c:489:20: warning: ‘realtime_counter_init’
     defined but not used [-Wunused-function]

It is because of the stub init function which was added for the cases
where realtime_counter_init() is called with 
!CONFIG_SOC_HAS_REALTIME_COUNTER.
This is actually not necessary since the SOC which need this feature
will explicitly select the configuration.

So just drop the unused stub to avoid the build warning.

Patch is made after seeing Jon's patch which was wrapping the
real-time counter code under needed SOC #ifdef
