Hmm, I am not sure I see how this would prevent you from treating a
PLL pair as a black box, but OTOH, doing that probably wouldn't result
cleaner or simpler code. IMHO, it's unfortunate that PD bit is shared
between the two clocks, but if PLL1 could only be ever connected to
corresponding PLL2, then my concerns were probably misguided and
current implementation is good enough.
