[rtc-linux] [RFC PATCH 2/2] rtc: s3c: Add s3c_rtc_{enable/disable}_clk in s3c_rtc_setfreq()

From: Alim Akhtar <alim.akhtar@samsung.com>

Also in: lkml
Subsystem: real time clock (rtc) subsystem, the rest · Maintainers: Alexandre Belloni, Linus Torvalds

As per code flow it is possible that s3c_rtc_setfreq() might get called
with rtc clock disabled and in set_freq we perform h/w registers read/write,
which might results in a kernel crash while probing rtc driver.
Below is one such case:
s3c_rtc_probe()
    clk_prepare_enable(info->rtc_clk) // rtc clock enabled
      s3c_rtc_gettime() // will enable clk if not done, and disable it upon exit
        s3c_rtc_setfreq() //then this will be called with clk disabled

This patch take cares of such issue by adding s3c_rtc_{enable/disable}_clk in
s3c_rtc_setfreq().
