Now that we have it sorted that AINCOM should be a supply, it does
sound like we should more closely follow the pattern from AD7192. But
to cover every possible programmable combination of AINx to AINy, we
would need 256 differential channels (16 * 16) in addition to the
other channels. Realistically, we probably don't need that many
though. Since I see that AD7192 has a differential channel where uses
AIN2 for both + and - I guess having 16 differential channels that are
configured via device tree would be enough to allow all 16 AINx inputs
to be used this way. Is there a use case where the same AINx would be
assigned to multiple channels at the same time?
