In cas of probe failure, devres may free the memory allocated for
rtc->nvram before devm_rtc_release_device() is called. This leads to
rtc_nvram_unregister using it after being freed which may lead to a crash.
This has been shown to happen after commit 461e557b97 ("rtc: nvmem: use
devm_nvmem_register()")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
