[PATCH] RTC: Return -EBUSY, not -EACCES when device is busy

[cbrand]

From: Chris Brand <chris.brand@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

If rtc->irq_task is non-NULL and task is NULL, they always
differ, which means that in rtc_irq_set_state() and
rtc_irq_set_freq(), whenever err is set to -EBUSY it will
then immediately be set to -EACCES, misleading the caller
as to the underlying problem.
