Mhmm, the CONFIG_TEGRA124_EMC depends on ARCH_TEGRA_124_SOC so on the
config !ARCH_TEGRA_124_SOC && ARCH_TEGRA_132_SOC this was not
selected. Now it will be selected.

Indeed, the clk and emc drivers are so tightly coupled that anyway it
would be big patch to change the interfaces followed up a small one
making emc module. OK.
