[PATCH] rtc: rtc-at91rm9200: fix lost ACKUPD interrupt

If an alarm interrupt raises just after the CR register is written and
before the ACKUPD is unmasked the ACKUPD bit might be cleaned up without
waking up the waiting thread.

Unmask the ACKUPD interrupt before writing the CR register so that the
ACKUPD cannot be lost.
