oh, so it's d for delay? I assumed it was for dotclock.

Hmmm, I might have.. :)

Where did you find this documentation? I was under the impression that
all that DCLK stuff was in the higher bits of the DCLK register, but
apparently there's more to it.

It might be some additional dividers too.

The manual says "data clock" for register 0x44 (TCON0_DCLK_REG)

Same section, TCON0_IO_POL_REG register bits.

The bits in TCON0_IO_POL_REG are likely a mux, letting you select which
one that is actually used on the external (with regard to the TCON) pin.

Might be something like this:

TCON CH0 clk ----- dclk_en   - no delay        --------------[mux]--- dclk out
               \\- dclk1_en  - 1/3 phase delay --------------////
                \- dclk2_en  - 2/3 phase delay --------------///
                 \ dclkm2_en - /2 divider - no delay --------//
                                          \ 90 degree delay -/
