I think that is not the right symbol. USE_OF is an ARM specific symbol
that should not get selected from common code. Also I think 'depends on'
is much better than 'select', because it has fewer side-effects.

Right now, CLKSRC_OF is only selected by platforms that also select USE_OF
on ARM, which seems appropriate for now, but if we want to make
CLKSRC_OF a generally visible option, it should use 'depends on OF'.

What I don't understand is how that relates to my comment on your
code. My goal was to support drivers that can contain all the code
needed for CLKSRC_OF without any #ifdef but that still work if CONFIG_OF
and CONFIG_CLKSRC_OF are both disabled.
