clkout for debug is very useful indeed. For SoCs with high speed clocks
that I have worked with, I have often observed that the clkout logic
introduces buffers or dividers. This is needed so that you can get a
(relatively) clean clock signal on your oscilloscope. Otherwise that
2GHz ARM clk is just going to be noise ;-)

These divider values can modeled in the clk framework. Do you know if
you have such stuff on your chip?
