The original discussion with John involved the addition of an extra chunk of core logic so we would have the ability to specify the channel without using extended_name. Extended name is not intended to differentiate between channels (it isn't in general enough to do so - though it works in this little corner case of sysfs attributes like you have here). So the plan is to add another field to the iio_chan_spec structure to allow for the complexity we need. See the long discussions over how we represent the myriad of channels in here. If you need some pointers, feel free to ask but it may take me a little while to put together a full description of what needs doing. I'll put a few more direct comments in the individual patches.
