Nitpickish: This function doesn't _add_ anything. It would probably be
better called at91_init_device_rtt_rtc. Same goes for the other "add"
functions in this patch.

Does this work by setting the rtt device name iff
CONFIG_RTC_DRV_AT91SAM9 is set? If so, it seems a bit ugly. Why bother
doing the platform_device_register at all if you know it isn't going to
do anything? Shouldn't the at91sam9260_rrt_device struct declaration and
the platform_device_register all be conditional on CONFIG_RTC_DRV_AT91SAM9?
