COMMON_CLK is a user-selectable option with its own dependencies. The most important dependency is !HAVE_LEGACY_CLK. User-selectable drivers should not select COMMON_CLK because they will create a dependency cycle and build failures. For example on MIPS a configuration with COMMON_CLK (selected by SND_SUN8I_CODEC) and HAVE_LEGACY_CLK (selected by SOC_RT305X) is possible:

however, I'm not sure the prefix is the one Mark would expect?
