rtc: tps6586x: fix possible race condition
The probe function is not allowed to fail after the RTC is registered because the following may happen: CPU0: CPU1: sys_load_module() do_init_module() do_one_initcall() cmos_do_probe() rtc_device_register() __register_chrdev() cdev->owner = struct module* open("/dev/rtc0") rtc_device_unregister() module_put() free_module() module_free(mod->module_core) /* struct module *module is now freed */ chrdev_open() spin_lock(cdev_lock) cdev_get() try_module_get() module_is_live() /* dereferences already freed struct module* */ Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@bootlin.com>
