[PATCH] drivers/rtc/interface.c: check the error after __rtc_read_time()

From: Hyogi Gim
Date: Thu Jul 03 2014 - 21:23:21 EST


In __rtc_set_alarm(), the error after __rtc_read_time() is not checked.
If rtc device fail to read time, we cannot guarantee the following process.

Add the verification code for returned __rtc_read_time() error.
