[ Upstream commit 44b8fb6eaa7c3fb770bf1e37619cdb3902cca1fc ] After registering character device the file operation callbacks can be called. The open callback registers interrupt handler. Therefore interrupt handler can execute in parallel with rest of the init function. To avoid such data race initialize telclk_interrupt variable and struct alarm_events before registering character device. Found by Linux Driver Verification project (linuxtesting.org).

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.
