The patch:
"timers: Introduce in-kernel alarm-timer interface"
(sha1: ff3ead96d17f47ee70c294a5cc2cce9b61e82f0f)
introduced new requirement that RTC drivers with alarm functionality
can't be used as a module.
When module is unloaded there is still a reference that's why
rtc_device_release() is not called and ida is not freed.
That's why when module is loaded again it can't use the same RTC number
based on aliases.
Log:
sh-4.3# modprobe rtc-zynqmp
[ 42.468565] rtc_zynqmp ffa60000.rtc: rtc core: registered
ffa60000.rtc as rtc5
sh-4.3# rmmod rtc-zynqmp
sh-4.3# modprobe rtc-zynqmp
[ 48.648222] rtc_zynqmp ffa60000.rtc: /aliases ID 5 not available
[ 48.654280] rtc_zynqmp ffa60000.rtc: rtc core: registered
ffa60000.rtc as rtc0
This patch is removing module support which is just a workaround till
alarm-timer interface is fixed to support device releasing when alarm
timer is not used.

If you say yes here you get support for the RTC controller found on
