Subject[PATCH 31/45] rtc: cmos: fix possible race condition
Date
The probe function is not allowed to fail after registering the RTC because
the following may happen:

CPU0: CPU1:
sys_load_module()
do_init_module()
do_one_initcall()
cmos_do_probe()
rtc_device_register()
__register_chrdev()
cdev->owner = struct module*
open("/dev/rtc0")
rtc_device_unregister()
module_put()
free_module()
module_free(mod->module_core)
/* struct module *module is now
freed */
chrdev_open()
spin_lock(cdev_lock)
cdev_get()
try_module_get()
module_is_live()
/* dereferences already
freed struct module* */

Switch to devm_rtc_allocate_device/rtc_register_device to register the rtc
as late as possible.
