This entry is already mostly in the doc around line 200, just without the index.
Please just add the What: line to that block to reduce repetition.
If you want to add... "Where present, Y indexes the channel." or something like
that feel free.  
When adding in_anglY_raw to in_angl_raw block, Should I update the KernelVersion form
4.17 to 5.12? Like blow:

No. This is an unfortunate limitation of these files unless we keep duplicating
nearly identical text.

I'm not that worried about documenting an optional bit of ABI as apparently
being in an earlier kernel than it actually was.  That way any userspace
will work.  The other way around is more likely to cause problems.

Makes sense to keep this block separate given the additional info provided.
Alternative would be to add it to the one with in_voltageY_label which would
be odd given what follows!  
Ok, Then I will keep the in_anglY_label block here. BTW, I didnot see in_voltageY_label
in sysfs-bus-iio in current kernel master branch.
It was part of the series that added the support for per channel labels to the core.
3079188f821c ("iio:Documentation: Add documentation for label channel attribute")
so will only going into current master in the merge window that will open shortly.
