[PATCH AUTOSEL 4.19 111/206] rtc: ds1374: fix possible race condition

From: Sasha Levin
Date: Thu Sep 17 2020 - 22:45:34 EST


From: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@xxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit c11af8131a4e7ba1960faed731ee7e84c2c13c94 ]

The RTC IRQ is requested before the struct rtc_device is allocated,
this may lead to a NULL pointer dereference in the IRQ handler.

To fix this issue, allocating the rtc_device struct before requesting
the RTC IRQ using devm_rtc_allocate_device, and use rtc_register_device
to register the RTC device.
