Then say the block provides clocks and resets is all I'm asking for.

Sorry, but you do need to describe what functions the blocks provide.
Also, if you are accessing the infracfg regs directly to modify clock
registers outside of the clock driver, that is very bad design. The
clock driver could assume that register values are not changing behind
its back and it bypasses any locks around register accesses. I can see
why it is needed though, but we really need a proper interface.
