While this check is good, it does not check to see if the correct amount of time has actually passed. This misses situations where the RTC may be operating at a higher or lower frequency than expected. This patch introduces a simple check to verify if the time passed is less than 10% of what was programmed into the RTC. Also make a simple one line change to rtc.txt to point to the right test program.
