Subject: [PATCH] rtc: snvs: fix possible race condition
Date:   Tue, 16 Jul 2019 15:18:58 +0800
Message-Id: <20190716071858.36750-1-Anson.Huang@nxp.com>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

From: Anson Huang <Anson.Huang@nxp.com>

The RTC IRQ is requested before the struct rtc_device is allocated,
this may lead to a NULL pointer dereference in IRQ handler.

To fix this issue, allocating the rtc_device struct before requesting
the RTC IRQ using devm_rtc_allocate_device, and use rtc_register_device
to register the RTC device.
