Indeed it seems that when you have CONFIG_COMMON_CLK selected the clock
framework starts returning errors if the clock is not found.

Since we need the clock for Intel LPSS I2C host controllers (and they
may have *CNT methods), I think you just need to provide the clock for
AMD I2C host controller in similar way than we do in
drivers/acpi/acpi_lpss.c.
