Not exactly.  Mclk is tied to vddci (memory interface voltage), but both mclk
and sclk (and the core display clock) are tied to vddc (core voltage).

The actual adjustments are done by a microcontroller on the GPU.  You pass a
set of structures defining the performance levels within the power state to the
microcontroller and the microcontroller handles the switching.  It takes into
account all of the ordering and chip state dependencies.
