Ditto here Jan.

Bindings should be complete, even if software doesn't use the
interrupts. Can you document them please.

Do you have a link to a datasheet? The link to the pm16d17 here 404s for
me.

How did you get itime from conversion time? To the layman (like me!)
conversion-time would make more sense...

Also, "ps"? The whole thing is a proxy sensor, so why have that prefix
on properties. What is missing however is a vendor prefix.

Instead of a string, please use the -us suffix, and put this in
microseconds instead.

In total, that would be s/ps-itime/everlight,conversion-time-us/.

I would, however, like to know why this is a property of the hardware.
What factors do you have to consider when determining what value to put
in here?

All of the same comments apply here. E.g. why "wtime" isntead of
"waiting-time" and so on.
I would really like to know why these things are properties of the
hardware, rather than something that software should control.

All custom properties require a vendor prefix, not "ps". Again, what
makes this a property of the hardware, rather than something that
software should control?

Again, what makes this a property of the hardware? What hardware related
factors determine that value that you put in here?

Thanks,
Conor.
