Thanks for your patch!

Does this need a Fixes tag?

As the return value of class_interface.add_dev() is never checked
(alarmtimer_rtc_add_device() returns -EBUSY on adding a second
alarmtimer), multiple timers may have been added, but only one of them
will be the real alarmtimer.
Hence this function should check if rtcdev == rtc before unregistering
the real alarmtimer.  Of course all of this should be protected by
rtcdev_lock.

Perhaps use the reverse order of operations as in
alarmtimer_rtc_add_device()?
