... and a totally pointless use of the ternary operator.

If we look at stm32_rtc_alarm_irq_enable():

static int stm32_rtc_alarm_irq_enable(struct device *dev, unsigned int enabled)
{
...
if (enabled)
do A;
else
do B;
...
}

alrm->enabled is an unsigned char. So, the above can be simplified to:

stm32_rtc_alarm_irq_enable(dev, alrm->enabled);

without any need what so ever to use the ternary operator.
