The beaglebone dts uses some undocumented properties such as:
iio-channels and iio-channel-names.

Yes, this is where I got confused.

The stmpe811 has 8 channels. On the apalis board, the first four channels
(0 to 3) are used for touchscreen. The other 4 channels are for general purpose.

The ADC that is connected to the MUX is channel 4 (which is the first
one that is
free for general usage), so I had to pass:

io-channels = <&adc0 0>;

in the mux, instead of  io-channels = <&adc0 4> that I was originally trying.

and now the mapping is correct and I can read proper voltages when I
switch the mux.

Thanks!
