Commit 3966c947f45911e093114371462687134d5e8d40 ("clk: max77686:
Refactor driver data handling") added a call to __clk_get_hw()
but this function is not exported (as __<name> is typically a
private/internal thing).

Hence this driver fails to build modular, and has been causing
allmodconfig build breakage in arch outside of just ARM.  Since
the only defconfig that uses it sets it as =y, lets just make
it non-modular for now.

Mike says that changes are pending to export similar functionality
in the future[1], so at that point in time, it can be returned to
tristate if desired.

Hi Paul,

I've just sent off my 2nd pull request for 3.14 and it includes the
export for __clk_get_hw.

Regards,
Mike

Sounds good ; I wasn't too partial to how it got fixed, but just
wanting to see the ARCH != ARM build fallout go away.

Thanks,
Paul.
