Isn't that done automatically for an unused clock? However, I would do
that in the probe as you will have to sprinkle some #ifdef
CONFIG_COMMON_CLK after seeing the kbuild report.
I'm rethinking about your comment about breaking existing boards. I'd
say that probably nobody is using the output from the rtc but maybe
(highly unlikely) some are configuring it from the bootloader and in
that case it is not nice to undo that configuration. Let's keep that
block here as long as it works fine for you.
