Hmm. This is not the intent of extended name at all. That exists to add
a small amount of information to an constructed IIO channel name.
Typically it's used to indicate physically wired stuff like:
in_voltage0_vdd_raw for cases where that channel of the ADC is hard wired
to the vdd. In this particular case the use might actually work as the
vdd makes it clear it's a voltage - in general that's not the case.
Use of extended_name at all in IIO is only done after extensive review.
It adds nasty custom ABI to a device, so the gain has to be considerable
to use it.
When I read your original suggestion of adding labels, I was expecting the
use of datasheet_name. That has the advantage of being well defined by
the datasheet (if not it should not be provided) + not being used in
the construction of the IIO channel related attributes. However, that
may still not correspond well to the expected labelling in hwmon.
Thinking more on this, the label is going to often be a function of how
the board is wired up... Perhaps it should be a characteristic of the
channel_map (hence from DT or similar) rather than part of the IIO driver
itself?
At first glance hwmon labels appear to be pretty freeform... However
we need to be very careful here as this is effectively defining a large
chunk of new ABI.
This isn't a thing that I have a particularly clear view on (as you
might be able to tell ;). Other opinions sought!
