Ah. So to figure this out we'll need to read some more info about the
channels. The phandle order for the touchscreen binding
should probably be specified (if it's not already) and that should let
us establish the ordering of channels.

So for this we are going to need to define it in a generic fashion - probably
via a mode + coefficients in DT?

ok. There is definitely an argument in favour of generic code. Whether
the method of IIO provider and touch screen driver consumer makes sense
is a little less clear but it's certainly a reasonable option.

It isn't that unusual to have a generic ADC that needs some settling time
before a good result is obtained, so it might be fine to keep an element of
that in the ADC driver, perhaps even defining a standard interface to do
it. It is a somewhat similar requirement to oversampling, just that you
drop the first N samples rather than averaging them.

That is a fairly specific thing to do. Does the existing
touch screen driver do that, or it that a proposed change?

If you were to make this a non threaded handler, the poll handler in this
driver will indeed run in the same context, but in theory another
device might be connected to the same trigger. That one might have
a non threaded handler which would not be called using
iio_trigger_poll_chained().
So generally, unless a driver needs to sleep or do something complex,
it's better to call iio_trigger_poll() from the non threaded
handler.
For many usecases it obviously won't make any difference at all
because there will be no 'top half' interrupts registered and it
will just end up calling the threaded parts anyway.
