For the record, I think this was introduced by commit 56a34b03ff427
("ARM: versatile: Make plat-versatile clock optional") which forgot to
select PLAT_VERSATILE_CLOCK on Zynq.  This is not all that surprising,
because the fact that Zynq "uses" PLAT_VERSATILE is secretly hidden in
the Makefile.

Nevertheless, the only feature from versatile that Zynq needed was the
clock support, so this patch should *also* delete the secret use of
plat-versatile by removing this line from arch/arm/Makefile:

  plat-$(CONFIG_ARCH_ZYNQ)	+= versatile

I'd prefer if we just added "select COMMON_CLK" instead of removing this
so we don't have to re-add this later, but I guess it doesn't really
matter either way.
