I've applied this patch now.

    clk: make CONFIG_COMMON_CLK invisible
    
    All platforms that use the common clk infrastructure should select
    COMMON_CLK from platform code, and on all other platforms, it must
    not be enabled, so there is no point making the option visible to
    users, and when it is visible, we break randconfig builds.
