drivers/rtc: introduce missing kfree
Error handling code following a kzalloc should free the allocated data.
The semantic match that finds the problem is as follows:
(http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
// <smpl>
@r exists@
local idexpression x;
statement S;
expression E;
identifier f,f1,l;
position p1,p2;
expression *ptr != NULL;

x@p1 = \(kmalloc\|kzalloc\|kcalloc\)(...);
...
if (x == NULL) S
<... when != x
when != if (...) { <+...x...+> }
(
x->f1 = E

(x->f1 == NULL || ...)

)
...>

return \(0\|<+...x...+>\|ptr\);
