I would avoid implementing .proc, it has been deprecated for a while and
doesn't bring much.

Please use devm_rtc_allocate_device() and devm_rtc_register_device() so
you can set range_min and range_max. I get you don't need the rtc_device
later so we could have a helper that takes the range and registers the
rtc.
