Not for interrrupts.

My only suggestion, if you want interrupts, is to modify
the rtc driver to try and get the PIT to do the job instead.

Of course, that will fail on RUFFIAN, which doesn't have
its RTC connected to anything, and has to rely on the PIT
for timer interrupts. But it's the oddball.
