[PATCH 2/3] x86: fix cmos read and write to not use inb_p and outb_p

fix code to access CMOS rtc registers so that it does not use inb_p and outb_p routines, which are deprecated. Extensive research on all known CMOS RTC chipset timing shows that there is no need for a delay in accessing the registers of these chips even on old machines. These chipa are never on an
