I don't feel this function is necessary, you can include it in __rtc_add_group
I think that it is easier to read, but sure I can include it.

Please use devm_kcalloc
okay

Using devm_device_add_group after RTC registration is racy and should
not be allowed. I would merge __rtc_add_group in rtc_add_group and
return an error if rtc->registered is true.
You are right. An error in this case is better.
