After additional research and a long chat with Stephen this is what I
have come up with.

On PM8058 you have 16 AMUX channels that can be either read as raw,
scaled or dived by 3, this is selected by the 2 "premux" bits in the
AMUX selector register.

AMUX channel 5-9 are called MPP5-9,
connected to a switching matrix so each MPP is configured to output its
signal on one of the 5 mpp-amux-channels. I.e. it's probably better to
rename these just "AMUX5" through "AMXU9".



On PM8921 this changes somewhat and an additional mux is introduced.
The first premux looks similar to pm8058, but with no direct MPP AMUXes
to be selected. Premux 1 or 2 is used to select the second level mux.

This mux has channels:
 1: usb_sns
 2: dcin_sns
 3: amux3 (reserved and called pa_therm)
 4: amux4 (reserved and called amux_in)
 5-8: amuxX (as configured output of MPPs)

Premux 2 has the same set of channels, but with a divisor of 3.

The MPP1/MPP2 AMUX channels in premux 0 found downstream are now
reserved - likely they the hardware used to select unity and div/3 input
from the second level mux.

Bjorn
