yes, it needs aux clock, see: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/4/19/124

I understand your concerns but, please, cope with reality: the clock
work is not in -next so this tends to make me think it won't reach
3.11. We're at -rc6 after all. Telling users that their system doesn't
have any network because it was easier to maintain, is not something
they will understand imho.

Arnaud
