rtc: refine rtc_timer_do_work() to consider other set alarm failures
rtc_timer_do_work() only judges -ETIME failure of__rtc_set_alarm(), but doesn't handle other failures like -EIO, -EBUSY, etc. If there is a failure other than -ETIME, the next rtc_timer will stay in the timerqueue. Then later rtc_timers will be enqueued directly because they have a later expires time, so the alarm irq will never be programmed. When such failures happen, this patch will retry __rtc_set_alarm(), if still can't program the alarm time, it will remove current rtc_timer from timerqueue and fetch next one, thus preventing it from affecting other rtc timers.
