I did, see: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20240509193125.GA3614@debian/T/#u

But maybe not to the point. Sysfs is working correct and iio_info
probably not. There is only one channel found, the temp_ambient. I would
have expected two channels. Instead there are four attributes, I would
have expected two. It seems to me that they are just duplicated. I also
added the output when setting channel2 member of channel 0 to
IIO_MOD_TEMP_OBJECT. This time iio_info works fine.

I just thought the setting of channel2 member to IIO_MOD_TEMP_OBJECT was
missing. But it turned out that it is not set for a reason. I'm fine
with the existing mapping, but would be still interesting to know how
others think about the mapping.
