GPIO-controller:
'#gpio-cells':
const: 2
gpio-controller: true
Like this, in properties?
Sync can only be an output, Error is configurable. Are there any
examples for how something like this is described?

I do not see how there could be 2 interrupts. DOUT/RDY is used as an
interrupt when waiting for a conversion to finalize.
Sync and Error are sepparate pins, Sync(if enabled) works only as an
input that resets the modulator and the digital filter.
Error can be configured as input, output or ERROR output (OR between all
internal error sources).
Would this be alright
interrupts:
description: Conversion completion interrupt.
Pin is shared with SPI DOUT.
maxItems: 1

Just to be sure, in the allOf section?
If yes, is there any other more elegant method to obtain this behavior?

All channels must specify 2 analog input sources, there is no input
source wired by default to AVSS.
In my opinion, there is no need to specify channels as single-ended
because that would require a property that specifies the input that is
wired to AVSS.
