Using the assigned-* clock properties may be workable for this driver at
the moment. But using these properties does not guarantee the external
clock frequency intended to be used on the hardware. Using other
frequencies *is not* expected to work. That applies to this driver as well.

This, instead of the clock-frequency property, effectively removes the
ability to set the correct frequency from the driver, at least with current
set of the used APIs.

I suppose you could add a function to set the assigned clock frequency and
keep it, just as clk_set_rate_exclusive does?

Cc the common clock framework list + maintainers.
