Daniel,

So I noticed something yesterday while testing new boards.
The channels are occassionally swapping when accessing data from multiple channels.

I wrote a simple bash script to demonstrate.

root@dragonboard-410c:~# cat test-analog.sh 
while [ 1 ]; do
voltage0=`cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0/in_voltage0_raw`
voltage1=`cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0/in_voltage1_raw`
voltage2=`cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0/in_voltage2_raw`
voltage3=`cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0/in_voltage3_raw`
echo ain0 = $voltage0 ain1 = $voltage1 ain2 = $voltage2 ain3 = $voltage3
done
root@dragonboard-410c:~# ./test-analog.sh

.

The in_voltage3_raw channel is connected to GND the rest are left floating.
This does not happen if only one channels is accessed at a time.

I have not yet found the solution. Please left me know if this can be
duplicated on your end.
