Can someone inside qcom tell us?

I don't really care. Inside qcom they called things branches in the
hardware and that name was carried into the code. If sreg is a branch
then that would make sense. From the 'core_ack' and 'periph_ack' it
actually looks like some sort of power switch masquerading as a clk.
