Add ABI documentation for mt6360 ADC sysfs interfaces.

Signed-off-by: Gene Chen <redacted>
Would you consider using the proposed label attribute for channels?

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20200916132115.81795-1-cristian.pop@analog.com/T/#u (local)

I'm hoping that will remove the need to have ext name used in the majority of
cases and would like to know if it would work for you?
It may not work for this particular case of course.

Other comments inline.
because of ADC layout is fixed, I can't switch channel to specific
purpose for userspace.
That patch set doesn't allow userspace to change the purpose. It provides
a *_label attribute for each channel to allow for identification of the channel.
That can be provided by ACPI / DT or can be provided by the driver itself.
The advantage is that it removes the nasty freeform parsing that is needed
to work out the filenames.
May I ask how to get this patch for test the labels?
I supposed userspace catch meanings by iio device sysfs node name.
The label defined in DT means it can be modified. But actually shouldn't.

+What:                /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/in_voltage_USBID_input

The mixture of case is a bit ugly.  Could we do
in_voltage_usbin_input?

Why would we ever read the low accuracy version?
VBUSDIV5 with lower accuracy(+-75mA) higher measure range(1~22V)
VBUSDIV2 with higher accracy (+-30mA) lower measure range(1~9.76V)
I will fix the description

Given voltage and current are already clear from the channel type,
could we avoid the repetition?

in_current_bus_input perhaps?

That's an odd bit of ABI.  Why would we want to read the current timestamp from
sysfs?  Timestamps in IIO also tend to be in nano seconds.


ACK, I will remove this.
