Yes, something like this.

My question is, why don't you provide a clock provider (under drivers/clk) for
this platform and use it instead?

Yes.

Besides that it should be a part of clock provider, no, you may use a formula
(bit operations and so on).

What I meant here is to make the reset optional (there is even specific API for
that) and return an error in that case.

Can't you derive it by formula(s)?
