nit: to_adf4350_state() would be neater...

So, apparently you forgot or decided otherwise to not go with the suggestion of
not including the IIO interface (at least he channel one - debugfs could be
maintained I guess) or with the more in the middle approach Michael suggested.
Just not allowing ADF4350_FREQ and ADF4350_FREQ_REFIN.

Hence, I would expect at least some justification to keep the above in your v3
changelog. Also note that keeping ADF4350_FREQ_REFIN while being a clock
provider seems pointless and maybe even be wrong (as the clock framework should
take care of the parent clock). This also brings another question... see below

Shouldn't we set CLK_SET_RATE_PARENT in init.flags?
