Sorry for the very very very very .. very late reply, your email slipped through
the cracks and I just noticed it.

That depends on the SoC, but generally... no, you have to select them for the
particular output.

There is a restricted set of outputs that support this block, but between this
set, there are still not enough blocks for all of them.

You (and me, and everyone else) can't really invest hours of time to check on
how each and every SoC on the planet works - that's normal.

No worries ;-)
