[PATCH 07/16] clocksource/drivers/timer-atmel-tcb: Stop using the 32kHz for clockevents

From: Alexandre Belloni <alexandre.belloni at bootlin.com>

Stop using the slow clock as the clock source for 32 bit counters because
even at 10MHz, they are able to handle delays up to two minutes. This
provides a way better resolution.
