Why do you consider it a "pinctrl hack"? IMHO it is not a hack, but 100% proper use of pinctrl.
The control register for the clock output buffer is part of the CTRL_MODULE_WKUP, which includes the well known pin controls of gpio1_wk but also this ckobuffer control. So it is grouped with these in a single control register block of the SoC. See "19.6.5.1 CTRL_MODULE_WKUP_PAD" of the TRM.
And IMHO, the naming "buffer" indicates that it controls the pad buffer (like all pinmux) and not the clock.
Yes, of course if can be described differently, as you propose. And one might argue that the twl6040 might want to request its master clock input (19.2 MHz) which could turn on the buffer on demand.
The question it raises to me are:
* isn't it "overkill" to describe a static pinmux register setup (it does not need to be turned on/off during operation) as mux (without function in OMAP5 SoC) + gate?
* does it require new driver code to correctly write to the control register?
* does it work if the twl6040 is hooked up differently?

On the EVM it is the FREF_XTAL_OUT (Ball L33) which goes as signal H_SYSCLK through a jumper (R87) and then as signal P_SYSCLK to the MCLK (Ball K7) of the twl6040.
Description of FREF_XTAL_OUT is in section 3.3.1 of the TRM.

Yes, that would certainly help to decide how to proceed.
