Your "in fact" is not really related to the problem described. If you
put it in the correct place, drivers will work just as fine.

No, instead explain why this is part of SoC - or what are you missing
here - and use preferred naming.
Please use name for all fixed clocks which matches current format
recommendation: 'clock-<freq>' (see also the pattern in the binding for
any other options).
