Subject[PATCH 44/61] ALSA: snd_rtctimer: handle RTC interrupts with a tasklet
-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------
From:  <clemens@ladisch.de>

The calls to rtc_control() from inside the interrupt handler can
deadlock the RTC code, so move our interrupt handling code to a tasklet.
