The RTC IRQ is requested before the struct rtc_device is allocated,
this may lead to a NULL pointer dereference in IRQ handler.
To fix this issue, allocating the rtc_device struct and register rtc
device before requesting the RTC IRQ.
Using devm_rtc_allocate_device/rtc_register_device instead of
devm_rtc_device_register.
Signed-off-by: Anson Huang <Anson.Huang@nxp.com>

Changes since V1:
- move devm_request_irq() to after rtc device register done, make sure everything
is ready before enabling IRQ.

This opens another race condition, the first version of the patch was
correct.

Hmm, OK, then we should go with V1.
Thanks,
