Patch clocksource-tclib-allow-higher-clockrates.patch needs to be
changed so:

ret = setup_clkevents(tc, best_divisor_idx);

becomes

ret = setup_clkevents(&tc, best_divisor_idx);


Also, I would think clocksource-tclib-add-proper-depend.patch could be
dropped. Instead, setup_clkevents should use atmel_tcb_divisors. It
would then be necessary to move its declaration before the function.

Sebastian, can you take care of that or do you expect a patch? In the
latter case, do you want a patch for the patch?

Using the slow clock, will make the platform wakeup less frequently,
having a higher clock rate will give a better clockevent resolution.
