Yes:

[dtor@...r-d630 linux-next]$ grep -r HAVE_CLK_PREPARE .
./arch/arm/Kconfig:     select HAVE_CLK_PREPARE
Binary file ./.git/objects/pack/pack-7dad5ee164f601f1327dc78648fa317772c2d872.pack matches
./include/linux/clk.h:#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_CLK_PREPARE
./include/linux/clk.h:#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_CLK_PREPARE
./drivers/clk/Kconfig:config HAVE_CLK_PREPARE
./drivers/clk/Kconfig:  select HAVE_CLK_PREPARE

Thanks.
