[ 181/187] drivers/rtc/rtc-spear.c: fix use-after-free in spear_rtc_remove()

[Greg Kroah-Hartman]

From: Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Devendra Naga <devendra.aaru@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 2a643893e50fde71d7ba84b5592ec61b467b9ab6 upstream.

`config' is freed and is then used in the rtc_device_unregister() call,
causing a kernel panic.
