Provide bindings and parse OF data during initialization.

looks good to me.  Couple of little queries inline.

[ ... ]

+Example for a configuration with trigger:
+
+	adc@35 {
+		compatible = "maxim,max1139";
+		reg = <0x35>;
+
+		adc: iio-device {
+			#io-channel-cells = <1>;
+		};
+		trigger: iio-trigger {
+			#io-channel-cells = <1>;
Why would the trigger have channel-cells?
So far we don't have any device tree stuff for the triggers.

I thought about keeping the example and adding a note that trigger support is
not currently implemented, but a better idea is to replace it with a second iio
device. I'll do that unless someone objects.

	adc@35 {
		compatible = "some-vendor,some-adc";
		reg = <0x35>;

		adc1: iio-device@0 {
			#io-channel-cells = <1>;
			/* other properties */
		};
		adc2: iio-device@1 {
			#io-channel-cells = <1>;
			/* other properties */
		};
	};
Agreed.


+
+==Example==
+
+	adc: max1139@35 {
+		compatible = "maxim,max1139";
+		reg = <0x35>;
+		#io-channel-cells = <1>;
+	};
+
+	...
+
+	iio_hwmon {
+		compatible = "iio-hwmon";
+		io-channels = <&adc 0>, <&adc 1>, <&adc 2>,
+			<&adc 3>, <&adc 4>, <&adc 5>,
+			<&adc 6>, <&adc 7>, <&adc 8>,
+			<&adc 9>, <&adc 10>, <&adc 11>;
+		io-channel-names = "vcc", "vdd", "vref", "1.2V";
This example still seems a little odd. Why give one where there are
more channels than names?

I replaced the example with

	iio_hwmon {
		compatible = "iio-hwmon";
		io-channels = <&adc 0>, <&adc 1>, <&adc 2>,
			<&adc 3>, <&adc 4>, <&adc 5>,
			<&adc 6>, <&adc 7>, <&adc 8>,
			<&adc 9>;
		};

	some_consumer {
		compatible = "some-consumer";
		io-channels = <&adc 10>, <&adc 11>;
		io-channel-names = "adc1", "adc2";
	};
Good as well. Much happier with these examples as they
won't cause any confusion.
