If probing the RTC didn't succeed due to failed RTC register
access, the RTC device will be unregistered. Then, when
removing the module r9701_remove() causes kernel crash
while trying to unregister not registered RTC device.
Fix this by doing RTC register access test before RTC
device registration.
