Whilst I think this needs redoing for the interrupt trigger driver,
please be aware that bindings must be OS agnostic i.e. you can't
name things after linux specific subsystem.  We get a lot
of stick for the iio-hwmon bindings specifically for doing this!

Which makes this 'interesting' to describe.

Once we have it updated feedback from Rob and Mark will definitely be needed on
this one.
