OK thanks for the remarks. I will fix this mess.

I hope you are expecting to see this:

pmic_vadc: vadc@3100 {
	#address-cells = <1>;
	#size-cells = <0>;
	#io-channel-cells = <1>;
	io-channel-ranges;

	usb_id_nopull@39 {
		reg = <0x39>;
	};
};

and use the vadc channel from usb device node

usb {
	...
	io-channels = <&pmic_vadc 0x39>;
	io-channel-names = "usbidnopull";
};
