hwclock: remove unused 'silent' arg

The 'silent' argument for get_epoch_rtc() was used
to silence error messages when querying the rtc
driver for an alpha epoch while using cmos direct
access. Alpha cmos has since been removed so
'silent' is no longer used.

* sys-utils/hwclock.h: remove 'silent' argument
* sys-utils/hwclock.c: same
* sys-utils/hwclock-rtc.c: same
