Fine with that - my test shows that these are not configured by the firmware.

As for headers: my experience is that these are the better resource
compared to all the public available documentation…

If you remember the “frac” bit discussion where you said:

  Once again, trusting the docs turns out to be a bad idea.  You're right,
  the non-MASH clocks *do* have a bit 9 to enable fractional mode.  Sigh.

Also my understanding is that those headers are still used by the firmware
developers, so I guess that these are pretty stable and well maintained
(even if the ones available are by now a bit dated).

They even contain ifdefs for some earlier versions of the chip - 
see the dma-channels and their interrupts…
I.e: BCM2708A0 which does not have the DMA channels 9 to 15

So I would not discount all those pieces of information as totally
irrelevant.
