Regarding the warning above: the "delayed_work_timer_fn+0x0/0x20" hint probably indicates an attempt to free a delayed_work structure that is embedded in struct rtc_device and that is still scheduled. It's unfortunate that debug_check_no_obj_freed() does not print the address of the offending object and the argument passed to kfree(). That information would allow to compute the offset of the embedded delayed_work structure make it easier to figure out what's going on.
