Yes, indeed. I did try to fix my problems by having ARCH_ZYNQ select
PLAT_VERSATILE_CLOCK, but I recall running into additional build
problems...

But now that I just tried it again, it all seems to work, barring
Kconfig complaining I've selected PLAT_VERSATILE_CLOCK, but not
PLAT_VERSATILE. (Having ARCH_ZYNQ select PLAT_VERSATILE, however, leads
to additional build problems).

Yes, indeed it should.

Thanks,
