[PATCH 5.1 255/405] rtc: xgene: fix possible race condition

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu May 30 2019 - 00:51:17 EST


[ Upstream commit a652e00ee1233e251a337c28e18a1da59224e5ce ]

The IRQ is requested before the struct rtc is allocated and registered, but
this struct is used in the IRQ handler. This may lead to a NULL pointer
dereference.

Switch to devm_rtc_allocate_device/rtc_register_device to allocate the rtc
struct before requesting the IRQ.
