Dan: thanks for pointing that out.  Do you use a tool to find these issues?

Andrew: this affects
rtc-mc13783-protect-rtc-unregistration-by-mc13783-lock.patch
in mmotm.

Below is an incremental fix for that, Andrew, can you please squash it
into the patch above?  rtc-mc13783-implement-alarm.patch conflicts with
it.  (The hunks for mc13783_rtc_probe using "priv->mc13783" should now
use "mc13783" only and the offsets are different now.)  If it's easier
for you, I can resend an updated version.  Just tell me so.

Best regards
Uwe

Yeah.  I'm using smatch.  http://smatch.sf.net  It's easy to use, but false 
positive heavy.

I already got a hint you're using that by private mail.
