From: Anson Huang <Anson.Huang@xxxxxxx> 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 and register rtc device before requesting the RTC IRQ. Using devm_rtc_allocate_device/rtc_register_device instead of devm_rtc_device_register.
