Vincent Whitchurch 25ddeb6be3 rtc: fix use-after-free on device removal
[ Upstream commit c8fa17d9f0 ]

If the irqwork is still scheduled or running while the RTC device is
removed, a use-after-free occurs in rtc_timer_do_work().  Cleanup the
timerqueue and ensure the work is stopped to fix this.

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.
