Probably easiest to switch to "Raspberry Pi Kernel Maintenance
<kernel-list at raspberrypi.com>".
That list didn't exist when I originally wrote the doc, and it just
makes life easier should I decide to move on (not planning it). Naush
is on that list too.

It's the "Unicam" and "Clock Manager Image" (CMI) blocks respectively.
CMI is only 4 registers. It provides high speed clock source selection
for the two Unicam blocks, a camera test block that has never been
used, and one of the USB controllers. Each peripheral is controlled by
a separate register.
It was discussed previously and viewed as not worthwhile creating a
full clock driver for it.

It's the clocks to Unicam, not to the camera / sensor.
The LP clock drives the LP state machine of Unicam for the relevant
DPHY state transitions.
The VPU or core clock is needed to ensure that the other bus systems
are running fast enough for the data generated.
