To me it seems you might be able to recycle the assigned-clocks and
assigned-clock-parents etc properties in the clock controller node.

Sure the assigned-clocks property will point to clocks in the
clock controller itself, and will have tens of entries, but should
work :)

And sounds like you can generate that list with some script from the
Apple dtb.

Tony
