My concern was that something might be accessing the registers before the 
clock had been enabled. It seems unlikely, given that the clock is enabled in 
the bind function, and I would have thought that nothing would invoke the 
different driver operations ("funcs") until bind has been called, nor should 
anything called from within bind itself be accessing registers.

It isn't actually needed. If the DMA descriptors are set up appropriately, the 
OSD alpha bit seems to be set as a consequence. In my non-Linux testing 
environment I don't even set any OSD registers explicitly, but the OSD alpha 
and enable flags become set when the display is active.
