default m or y would force compilation of EXYNOS_ACPM_CLK and
EXYNOS_ACPM_PROTOCOL for all ARCH_EXYNOS, even on Exynos platforms that
don't use ACPM. Since ACPM is not universally required by the Exynos
architecture, I thought to make it opt-in (default n).

Setting it as a module in arm64 defconfig makes it available on
compatible platforms.

Similar clock drivers do the same: CLK_RASPBERRYPI.
COMMON_CLK_SCPI, COMMON_CLK_SCMI - no defaults and set them as builtin
in the arm64 defconfig.

Cheers,
