Hi Krzysztof,

I'll elaborate this more in the next patchset. There are two main 
reasons for adding this documentation in a new file:

1.This device is not exactly like the existing QCOM VADC drivers as it 
now combines VADC functionality (reading ADC channel on client request) 
with ADC_TM functionality (thermal threshold monitoring).

2.Adding this device's bindings in the existing qcom,spmi-vadc.yaml file 
is not possible as it would require updating some of the existing 
top-level constraints. (for the older devices in that file, "reg" and 
"interrupts" can have at most one item, while this device can have more 
than one item under these properties.)

This is just meant to show the ADC channel name in DT for our reference. 
I'll check if I can use adc.yaml, which includes this property already, 
as a reference in this case.

Many of the properties used for earlier QCOM VADC devices will be used 
for this device too.....do you mean I can add a new schema file (named 
something like qcom,vadc.yaml) and move common properties into it (like 
qcom,hw-settle-time, qcom,decimation, etc) from this file and 
qcom,spmi-vadc.yaml?


Dmitry suggests doing it in a separate patch, I'll follow his suggestion 
if there's no issue.

This should have gone into patch 1, I'll fix it in the next patch series.

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

Thanks,
