Hi Herve,

Historically we've been a bit lax in IIO bindings in always making
sure the per supplies are included.  As a result we frequently get
them added later and it just makes things messier than they should
be.

So please add vcc-supply from the start.  V+ and V- are a little trickier.
I was expecting datasheet to say they should be symmetric about 0 but it
doesn't. So they could be two independent supplies.

Also make it required as my current understanding is that we should
do that for supplies that are definitely present even if we could
rely on the fallback to regulator stubs if they aren't supplied.
So add the 3 supplies to required as well.

Less of a requirement, but you might want to also provide an optional 
gpio for the not WP pin on basis someone might wire it up to the host processor.

Beyond the comment Krzystof made on iio.yaml this otherwise looks good to me.

Thanks,

Jonathan
