Rather than requiring platforms to select the generic clock API to make

or selects COMMON_CLK (if they depend on the generic implementation).

All current architectures that HAVE_CLK but don't use the common clock
framework have selects of HAVE_CUSTOM_CLK added.

This allows drivers to use the generic API on platforms which have no need
for the clock API at platform level.

For 3.7, Tegra will switch to the common clock framework. I think this patch would then disable that. How should we resolve this - rebase the Tegra common-clk tree on top of any branch containing this patch in order to remove that select statement?
