Hello,

I am writing a driver for a frequency synthesizer that does not currently have 
any support in the kernel. This synthesizer is clocked by a fixed external 
oscillator.

In my driver, I:

  1.  Register the clock hardware with devm_clk_hw_register
  2.  Describe the clocks to the DTS nodes with devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider

Various external stimuli and commands (through IIO) can change the frequency of 
this synthesizer.
How do I notify downstream devices that the frequency has changed? Ultimately 
it looks like __clk_notify() is what I want to call, but that is a non-exported 
function.  Tracking it through, the function stack that calls this looks like 
it is used to request a new frequency, not to notify consumers that the 
frequency has changed.

Does anyone have any tips, or perhaps know of an in-tree driver I could study 
to understand this better?

Thanks.
-Sam
