We'll have to find a better name for this. Feel free to look up examples in the
existing devicetree descriptions. The one that seems to be used most of the time
to indicate a channel index or id is "reg". It should also start with 0 - there
is no real reason for it to start with 1; it only makes the code more complex.
The reason is that the port start from 1 in the datasheet.
Maybe, but for me I'll want to have something that we can reuse for other chips.
Having the index start with 0 for one chip and with 1 for another would be
confusing. It is bad enough that we have in[0..n] for voltages and temp[1..n]
for temperatures. I would not want to see the same in devicetree files,
and much less so on a per-device basis. It is also pretty common to start
channel numbers with 0 in devicetree files.
I don't mind using reg or count it from 0, will look up to
see if I can find something solid; otherwise, I'll wait for
binding doc maintainers' opinions before sending v5.
Sure, no problem.

I would suggest shunt-resistor-micro-ohms as per
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/property-units.txt.
Will change it.
Thank you
