The AST2700 clock driver also exposes the SoC reset controller: it hands
its register base to a reset auxiliary device via
devm_auxiliary_device_create(), which the separate ASPEED reset driver
(RESET_ASPEED) then binds to. That create call needs the auxiliary bus
core (AUXILIARY_BUS), not the reset driver itself, but COMMON_CLK_AST2700
does not select AUXILIARY_BUS.
It builds today only because RESET_ASPEED selects AUXILIARY_BUS and is
normally enabled alongside the clock driver. On a randconfig with
COMMON_CLK_AST2700=y and RESET_ASPEED=n, nothing pulls the auxiliary bus
in and the kernel fails to link:
ld: drivers/clk/aspeed/clk-ast2700.o: in function `ast2700_soc_clk_probe':
clk-ast2700.c:(.text+0x147c): undefined reference to `__devm_auxiliary_device_create'
Select AUXILIARY_BUS directly, as other clock drivers that create
auxiliary devices do, so it builds regardless of the reset driver.

This driver provides support for clock on AST2700 SoC.
The driver is responsible for managing the various clocks required
