[PATCH 1/3] rtc: tps65910: fix possible race condition

From: Alexandre Belloni
Date: Thu May 17 2018 - 15:30:24 EST


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
before requesting the IRQ.
