Few comments inline.  Worth adding anything about the gpio (output pins) to
the binding at this stage as well?  Would certainly be nice to support
them.

Hmm. These are actually a policy decision.  As only one policy will make
sense for a given set of hardware probably fine to have it in here I guess.
Might be worth adding a note to say this though.

I'm never a great fan of magic numbers.  Can we represent this more cleanly by
breaking it into multiple properties?
Optional:
adi,idle-switch-to-channel : switch to this channel when idle.
adi,idle-high-impedance : <boolean> the nothing connected state?

If neither present leaves it in previous state?
