So, there's no way to query this from the device at all? Looking at the
data-sheet, all the frequency generation parameters are in registers,
and the device supports I2C read commands. As such, I'm not convinced
this property is necessary.

"probe" is a Linux-specific concept. This property should be removed. If
the driver is asked to set a specific frequency, it should do so, but I
don't think it should program something pro-actively just because it
starts up.
If this property is acceptable, it'd be better to describe it more along
the lines of the following:
initial-fout: The frequency at which the system requires the clock to
operate.
