You are right, I got confused because you were referring t the 32768 Hz
crystal in your commit message and though you aimed at selected the
parent of td_slck (and also, I didn't really work on the sam9x60).

I guess you could have a look at how the RTC is drifting when selecting
the RC osc as the parent but it will anyway be way less precise than the
crystal so i'm not sure how you could get a conclusive result.
