Subject: drivers/rtc/rtc-sirfsoc.c: move hardware initilization earlier in
 probe

commit 0e95325525c4383565cea4f402f15a3113162d05 upstream.

Move rtc register to be later than hardware initialization.  The reason
is that devm_rtc_device_register() will do read_time() which is a
callback accessing hardware.  This sometimes causes a hang in the
hardware related callback.
