This comment is unrelated to the package type (WLCSP or LFCSP).

What I mean is that e.g. AD4695 and AD4696 are virtually identical
other than the maximum allowable sample rate (500 kSPS or 1 MSPS).

So my thinking was that it would make sense to have:

	compatible = "ad4695";

for the lower sample rate chip and

	compatible = "ad4696", "ad4695";

for the higher sample rate chip since ad4696 can do everything
that ad4695 does plus a bit more.

We haven't implemented buffered reads in the driver yet, so there
isn't anything currently to be seen there. But when we do, we probably
want to limit the allowable value for the sampling_frequency attribute
based on which version of the chip is present. (I would like to get
Jonathan's opinion of if this is something we actually need to do
or not.)
