[PATCH 2/2] rtc: abx80x: solve race condition

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



There is a race condition that can happen if abx80x_probe() fails after the
rtc registration succeeded. Solve that by moving the registration at the
end of the probe function.
