rtc-stk17ta8: fix races around device registration


- Call dev_set_drvdata before rtc device creation.

- Use its own spinlock instead of rtc->irq_lock.  Because pdata->rtc
  must be initialized to use the irq_lock (pdata->rtc->irq_lock).  There
  is a small window which rtc methods can be called before pdata->rtc is
  initialized.

  And there is no need use the irq_lock to protect hardware registers.
  The driver's own spinlock shoule be enough.

- Check pdata->rtc before calling rtc_update_irq.

- Use alarm_irq_enable and remove ioctl routine.

- Use devres APIs and simplify error/remove path.

These fixes are ported from ds1553 driver and just compile-tested only.
