the config was freed and its used again at rtc_device_unregister which leads
to a kernel panic. so, do it right after the rtc_device_unregister

Is there any tree through which it can reach torvalds?

Thanks,

The way I would have found this information about any driver is by
looking at its
git-log and check via which path patches have been going till date. Maintainers
normally adds there signed-off's to patches that go through them.

Andrew Morton, is the one who applied rtc-spear patches till now. Added in cc.
