Why do the "clock and reset" resources not use a clock driver and a reset driver?

What does gen1, gen2 and gen3 refer to? Is this PCIe, SATA or serdes generations or all of them? Why are there two sets? Will this have to change if you add PCIe support? I would suggest using decimal notation here instead of hexadecimal since you are dealing with numbers couting things.
