A bool to tristate change isn't needed to make it possible to set a
symbol manually. That's achieved by adding a prompt (which the patch
also does).

This change adds a prompt to the symbol that enables the framework. But,
as far as I can see, clock drivers depending on that framework already
can be set manually. So that's another reason the above looks incorrect
to me.

Note that the "help" of COMMON_CLK contains:
Architectures utilizing the common struct clk should select
this option.

Does the architecture this patch targets perhaps not select COMMON_CLK?
If that's the case, it seems you should change that architecture
instead.

I told you yesterday that setting this to tristate allows over a dozen
new modules to be created. I'd be surprised if that doesn't break stuff
left and right without additional changes (which this patch lacks).

Thanks,
