probe() does indeed fail when no interrupt is specified:

  ...
  pic32-rtc 1f8c0000.rtc: no irq for alarm
  ...
  hctosys: unable to open rtc device (rtc0)
  ...

If I'm following, I think there right answer here is to just change the wording
in the commit message to be clear that the interrupt is not conditional.  It's
required via binding.  This peripheral has a dedicated interrupt and I can't
imagine a case where it makes sense not to specify it.

I'm fine with something like "- alarms provided by dedicated interrupt" as a
replacement.
