rtc: handle errors correctly in rtc_irq_set_state()

Browse Source 
commit 2c4f57d12df7696d65b0247bfd57fd082a7719e6 upstream.

The code checks the correctness of the parameters, but unconditionally
arms/disarms the hrtimer.

The result is that a random task might arm/disarm rtc timer and surprise
the real owner by either generating events or by stopping them.
