rtc: introduce new registration method
Introduce rtc_register_device() to register an already allocated and initialized struct rtc_device. It automatically sets up the owner and the two steps allocation/registration will allow to remove race conditions in the IRQ handling of some driver. It also allows to properly extend the core without adding more arguments to rtc_device_register(). Signed-off-by: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni@free-electrons.com>
