The GPIO framework provides a fairly simple view of GPIOs - from a user
point of view it's just getting or setting the value of a line.  It
looks like the register you're controlling isn't actually controlling a
chip feature directly but rather is setting a GPIO on the chip which
controls an external clock generator.  I could be misparsing things,
though.  I did glance at the pcm512x datasheet and didn't see pins or
anything that looked like an oscillator but I could've missed something.

Right, I think bringing in the clock framework more is good -
effectively all I'm suggesting is changing the control interface used to
set the clock to add an indirection through gpiolib so you don't need to
pass the raw register map around.
