It must be enabled for you touch registers across a bus/interconnect. For this type of clock is perfectly correct for the driver to enable it in addition to any functional clocks (e.g. maudio clocks). There are many instances where a driver must enable an interface clock (iclk) and a functional clock (fclk) and this isn't an issue of the driver knowing the clock topology, but instead knowing it's operational requirements. Just to make life more confusing, it might also be appropriate for the clock driver to manage turning on the interface clocks if this is required to touching the functional clocks. In general the register address space is used to determine which IP "owns" such behavior.
