This patch alone will break boot when using the default, upstream
defconfig because these options will all now be disabled and we'll have
no clock providers.

I think you also need a default value (e.g. `default y`) in
drivers/clk/meson/Kconfig for each of these entries to keep the same
defaults. But these defaults could be overridden by SoC-specific
defconfigs leading to more flexibilty.

So, assuming you queue up a drivers/clk patch to go in when this
lands...
