Frequency usually has some units, so use appropriate unit suffix and
drop $ref.  Maybe that's just target-rpm property?

But isn't this duplicating previous property? This is fan controller,
not PWM provider (in any case you miss proper $refs to pwm.yaml or
fan-common.yaml), so the only thing you initially want to configure is
the fan rotation, not specific PWM waveform. If you you want to
configure specific PWM waveform, then it's a PWM provider... but it is
not... Confused.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
