commit 454f47ff464325223129b9b5b8d0b61946ec704d upstream. Reading from the CMOS involves writing to the index register and then reading from the data register. Therefore access to the CMOS has to be serialized with rtc_lock. This invocation of CMOS_READ was not serialized, which could cause trouble when other code is accessing CMOS at the same time. Use spin_lock_irq() like the rest of the function. Nothing in kernel modifies the RTC_DM_BINARY bit, so there could be a separate pair of spin_lock_irq() / spin_unlock_irq() before doing the math.

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.
