I think this makes sense in your case, but I think it is too complicated
for a non-shared case. Perhaps mux-gpios should be used directly (i.e.
in the adc-mux node) and control-muxes only used for the shared case.
Part of me feels like you are working around in DT the GPIO subsystem
limitation that it can't share GPIO lines. Either this could be fixed
in some way in the GPIO subsystem, or the mux subsys could deal with it.
You just have to look up if you already have a mux registered for the
same GPIOs. Of course, that may make the mux subsys pretty much GPIO
only, but I'm having a hard time thinking how you would have shared
muxes that are not GPIO controlled. Any other control would be
integrated into the mux itself.

Needs some detail on what the value is. One bit per gpio? One cell per
gpio?

This is a common name? It should be in a common mux binding doc.

I think this can be dropped at least until you have more than 1.
