The GPADC IIO driver is not for the LRADC driver, but the GPADC /
temperature sensor.

We used to have an LRADC IIO driver in the CHIP BSP written by Alex
(in CC):
https://github.com/NextThingCo/CHIP-linux/commit/8675b761c54be73dc7cc0113209f02e10cc63a27

But he never mainlined it.

We need to keep the current binding. We can just check for the
presence or not of child nodes to see if it has some keys, and we'd
need an IIO-to-input driver that is yet to be written.
