[PATCH 1/3] rtc: mt6397: fix possible race condition

From: alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com (Alexandre Belloni)
Date: 2018-09-09 20:39:01
Also in: linux-mediatek, linux-rtc, lkml
Subsystem: arm/mediatek rtc driver, real time clock (rtc) subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Eddie Huang, Sean Wang, Alexandre Belloni, Linus Torvalds

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.
