Upon second thought: this xtal clock is documented to be the "rtc"
input to the RZ/N1 system controller[1], so it looks like the original
idea was to obtain it through the system controller.  Unfortunately
the clock driver[2] does not use the rtc input clock, nor provides it
to consumers.

So either we fix that, or we go with your solution...
