We don't intend this property to be something that can be controlled 
from userspace - if a client wants to read an ADC channel from 
userspace, we only intend to provide them the processed value, 
calculated with a fixed set of ADC properties mentioned in the 
corresponding channel node in DT.

avg-samples is also something we don't want the client to modify from 
userspace. As for using adc.yaml, I think I could use settling-time-us 
and oversampling-ratio from it for the above two properties.

However, Krzysztof has mentioned in another comment that I should put 
properties common to ADC5 Gen3 and older QCOM VADC devices in a common 
schema. If I now try replacing the existing qcom,hw-settle-time and 
qcom,avg-samples properties with settling-time-us and oversampling-ratio 
for older devices too, I would have to make several DT changes for 
existing devices...are you fine with this? Or should I just replace 
these two properties for ADC5 Gen3?


I'll address your other comments in the next patchset.


Thanks,

Jishnu
