If either of the first two branches of the if statement in rtc_read_alarm_internal are taken the fields of alarm->time are not initialized but are subsequently read by the call to rtc_tm_to_time64. Refactor so that the time field is only read if the final branch of the if statment which initializes the field is taken.
