But why? The scaler is the same qseed3 scaler. We do not dump features, 
they are constant for the platform in question.

I don't consider sub-block as being always present. But if it present, 
it has non-zero length. If its length is zero, we have nothing to dump 
for it.

I'd consider this as dumping the feature instead of dumping the 
registers. If you think it is necessary to ease decoding of the dump, 
consider adding block.features to the dump instead.
