Should have had a fixes tag - admittedly this one is easy as it's been
there from the start, but none the less it is good practice to put
one for any fix.

Fixes: cd1678f96329 ("iio: frequency: New driver for AD9523 SPI Low Jitter Clock Generator")

I have added that an marked this for stable.  It won't go anywhere until after
the coming merge window now though.

Applied to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git

Thanks,

Jonathan
