You should probably switch to devm_rtc_allocate_device() and
rtc_register_device instead of devm_rtc_device_register.
Just would like to know something details

It seems you just encourage me to switch into the new registration
method and currently devm_rtc_device_register I used for the driver
shouldn't cause any harm. right?
It will work but it will have to be converted to rtc_register_device
later anyway.
