When I removed this, I thought it was an accidental line left over from some clock work Sebastian was working on. Primarily because it was the *only* reference to clock in that series. It was only later that I found out it should have depended on mvebu/everything (or a subset of it). In an ideal world, we won't have to do an mvebu/everything, and then it's a lot easier to get all the dependencies correct. At any rate, as Sebastian noted, it builds fine, it boots, and only hangs if you query the cooresponding debugfs element. Not ideal, for sure, but easily fixed in -rc1. thx, Jason.
