Hi Jonathan and Rob,
Thanks for your comments. I'd say my fundamental problem is that I am
stumbling about in the dark. To be honest I haven't even worked out the benefit
of the yaml bindings.
I identified the stm32adc binding as the most up to date file to use as a
reference. If there is a better one then can you let me know.
I will work through the comments to try to understand and then implement them.
Thanks, Iain

As you can guess, it's because I don't understand it properly :)
