6.1-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Linkai Gong <redacted>

[ Upstream commit ca45cfa74370644d371b552bef57938c19e3c80c ]

gamecube_rtc_probe() ignored the return value of
devm_rtc_register_device() and always returned success. Propagate the
error so probe fails when RTC registration fails.
