It still is being used as an IIO backend, so I would leave out the
phrase "that is not covered by the IIO backend paradigm".

Quick, delete the word "driver" before Krzysztof sees it. :-p

Joking aside, the devicetree only describes how things are wired up,
it doesn't care how the driver uses the information. So we avoid
mentioning anything about drivers in the bindings.

Since this new compatible also provides a bus in addition to the io-backend,
I think we need some additional bindings to describe the child nodes for the
ADC devices attached to the bus.

I don't think there are any generic parallel-controller bindings like there
are for SPI controllers, so we can't $ref: /schemas/spi/spi-controller.yaml#
like we did for the similar case of adi,axi-ad3552r recently.

But maybe something like this:

properties:
  ...

  "#address-cells":
    const: 1

  "#size-cells":
    const: 0

patternProperties:
  "^adc@[0-9a-f]+$":
    type: object
    additionalProperties: true

    properties:
      reg:
        maxItems: 1

    required:
      - compatible
      - reg
