Subject[patch-2.4.0-test8-pre5] take #2 on rtc fixes
Hi Linus,

Thanks to Jeff Garzik I slightly improved the patch (by returning the
proper err codes always). So, to reiterate:

The rtc driver does:

a) not handle failures from misc_register() gracefully

b) not handle failures from create_proc_read_entry() gracefully

c) use check_region() where request_region() would suffice

d) not use KERN_ERR priority for errors consistently

e) initialises some static variables to 0 unnecessarily

The patch below fixes these issues/bugs. Tested under 2.4.0-test8-pre5.

Regards,
Tigran
