I'd rather not have a generic compatible like this. Something generic as
a fallback for the driver to binding against I would be fine with, but
not something that avoids people documenting their devices.
This binding was modeled on the following binding
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/adc/sigma-delta-modulator.yaml
But, I understand that we need to encourage people to use a real
compatible. So, I will remove this generic compatible from the binding
in v2.
Also, I think "backend" should be dropped from the
filename/title/descriptions, the ads1201 is "just" an delta-sigma
modulator.:wq
There is already a generic sigma delta modulator driver:
"sd_adc_modulator.c"
This driver follows a different approach, as it registers an IIO device.
It has to be kept for backward compatibility.
The current patch introduces a new sigma delta modulator generic driver
based on the new IIO backend framework.
So, we have two drivers dedicated to the same type of hardware, but
intented to be used with different topologies in IIO.
I used "backend" suffix as a differentiator here.
I did not find a better alternative to manage this diversity.
If, you have another suggestion please let me know.

Missing vendor prefix.
