I ran into the same issue.  After running the above link, I also had to
stop the atd daemon which had /dev/rtc0 open:

# opkg install lsof
# lsof | grep rtc
atd       1334       root    3r   CHR      254,0
1304 /dev/rtc0
# /etc/init.d/atd stop
# /etc/init.d/atd stop
Stopping at daemon: atd.
# hwclock --systohc
# /etc/init.d/atd start
Starting at daemon: atd.
