Bug#1094195: d-i stuck on MT7986

Debian-installer stuck before the initramfs part on Filogic Mediatek
MT7986 (BananaPi R3-mini). As investigated [1] on their forum with Frank
Wunderlich the root cause of this behavior is the missing clock driver.
Actually, it is not missing but built as a modul, so it is impossible to
load it without initramfs - but the kernel boot cannot reach that part
since it fails before due to the missing clock driver.
I have no idea if it makes sense to build it as a module in upstream in
the first place, but in Debian I suggest to stick with a built-in option
in the arm64 defconfig.
