Subject: [PATCH] rtc: rzn1: Handle unset alarm weekday in rzn1_rtc_read_alarm

RZN1_RTC_ALW is a weekday bitmask where bit N represents weekday N.
When no alarm has been configured, the register has its power-on-reset
value of zero.

rzn1_rtc_read_alarm() uses fls() to convert the weekday bitmask into a
weekday number. When RZN1_RTC_ALW is zero, fls(0) returns zero and
fls(wday) - 1 evaluates to -1. This invalid weekday is then used to
calculate the alarm date and can either leave tm_wday set to -1 or
produce a fabricated alarm date.

Treat a zero RZN1_RTC_ALW value as an unset alarm weekday and return
without calculating the alarm date. Move reading RZN1_RTC_CTL1 before
this check so that alrm->enabled is updated for both configured and
unconfigured alarms.
