Follow through how elements of iio_chan_info_enum in
include/linux/iio/types.h are used and you should see how to add a new
one (basically add an entry to that and also the string to the
right array in industrialio-core.c + document it in
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio.
The issue with putting this in is we are going to be 'fixing' the ABI for
that ALS sensor which is going to cause problems for any userspace users
of that interface... I have no idea how commonly this is used, but it is
possible we'll have to leave that one as incorrect :(

Sure, if they are independent that should be fine.
