4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@xxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit e6000a438e534ee0afd9e83b67f4e23a26dd1067 ] The IRQ is requested before the struct rtc is allocated and registered, but this struct is used in the IRQ handler. This may lead to a NULL pointer dereference. Switch to devm_rtc_allocate_device/rtc_register_device to allocate the rtc before requesting the IRQ.
