This works for me. Alternative would be something similar to what we did for
dt-bindings: iio: adc: Add AD4170-4 
Where there is an adi,sensor-type property in channels.
There they two types of channels were the same underlying hardware, it just provided
a way to constrain the other properties in the channel nodes.  That differs
from here where, as I understand it (Salih?) they are different hardware blocks
so 'reg' is an offset into a different set of registers. 

DT maintainers, I think this discussion would benefit from your guidance!

Thanks,

Jonathan
