That's a bit worrying!  Shouldn't be a problem unless there is something
fiddly required with the chip select or similar.

One common solution to this is to push the channel setup to firmware
as it corresponds to 'what is wired'.  See the channel bindings
in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/adc/adc.yaml
and various examples in tree.

Thanks for combining efforts btw - should give us the best overall
result but I feel for you when you discovered the duplication :(
