I know it's misleading, but that's the name from the datasheet,
that's why I tried to be more specific in the commit log.

In any case RESERVED_ACC stands for "reserved for external
accessory".

The Gear VR corresponds to MAX77843_MUIC_ADC_RESERVED_ACC_4, but
I don't think it's the only one, that's why it wouldn't be right
to call it e.g. MAX77843_MUIC_ADC_GEAR_VR.

I can of course add a comment on top of the above lines to make
it clearer.

Thanks,
Andi
