notifying clock consumers of frequency change

Hello,
I am writing a driver for a frequency synthesizer that does not currently have any support in the kernel. This synthesizer is clocked by a fixed external oscillator.
In my driver, I:
1. Register the clock hardware with devm_clk_hw_register
2. Describe the clocks to the DTS nodes with devm_of_clk_add_hw_provider
Various external stimuli and commands (through IIO) can change the frequency of this synthesizer.
How do I notify downstream devices that the frequency has changed? Ultimately it looks like __clk_notify() is what I want to call, but that is a non-exported function. Tracking it through, the function stack that calls this looks like it is used to request a new frequency, not to notify consumers that the frequency has changed.
Does anyone have any tips, or perhaps know of an in-tree driver I could study to understand this better?
Thanks.
-Sam
