There are multiple race condition issues in the RTC drivers. It is especially apparent in the IRQ handling and additionnal sysfs attributes registration. To solve most of those and allow to extend the framework more easily, introduce a new registration method that allows to first allocate an rtc_device and then register it. Also, introduce a generic way to register nvmem devices so RTCs can export their non volatile storage. One of the goal will be to get rid of the IS_ERR_OR_NULL(rtc) check in rtc_update_irq which makes people assume everything is properly handled in the core.
