Subject: [PATCH 5/6] rtc/mc13783: protect rtc {,un}registration by mc13783 lock

This is to protect from interrupt handlers using an unregistered rtc
device.

To assert that the reset irq is considered now before the rtc is
registered the corresponding status is checked before.

Hello,

this depends on patch 4/6 which added mc13783_irq_status.

Best regards
Uwe
