Maybe we can have a slightly better commit log here, like:
------8<-----------
iio: at91: Fix adc_clk overflow
The adc_clk variable is currently defined using a 32-bits unsigned
integer, which will overflow under some very valid range of operations.
Such overflow will occur if, for example, the parent clock is set to a
20MHz frequency and the ADC startup time is larger than 215ns.
To fix this, introduce an intermediate variable holding the clock rate
in kHz.

Or something like that.
For the patch itself, I'm happy about it. You can add my Acked-by.
Thanks!
Maxime
