Use macro module_platform_driver_probe() to reduce some of the

Out of curiosity here, why not just module_platform_driver(); can't the
instantiation of the RTC device be driven by the presence of the DT
node, and hence the creation of the platform device object, just like
any other driver/device?

Theoretically it should work but I will work with John (original author) about using the platform_driver_probe(). If he agrees then I will send patch to convert it to module_platform_driver().
