+Common multiplexer controller bindings
+======================================
+
+A multiplexer (or mux) controller will have one, or several, consumer devices
+that uses the mux controller. Thus, a mux controller can possibly control
+several parallel multiplexers, presumably there will be at least one
+multiplexer needed by each consumer..
+
+A mux controller provides a number of states to its consumers, and the state
+space is a simple zero-based enumeration. I.e. 0-1 for a 2-way multiplexer,
+0-7 for an 8-way multiplexer, etc.
+
+
+Consumers
+---------
+
+Mux controller consumers should specify a list of mux controllers that they
+want to use with a property containing a 'mux-ctrl-list':
+
+       mux-ctrl-list ::= <single-mux-ctrl> [mux-ctrl-list]
+       single-mux-ctrl ::= <mux-ctrl-phandle> [mux-ctrl-specifier]
+       mux-ctrl-phandle : phandle to mux controller node
+       mux-ctrl-specifier : array of #mux-control-cells specifying the
+                            given mux controller (controller specific)
+
+Mux controller properties should be named "mux-controls". The exact meaning of
+each mux controller property must be documented in the device tree binding for
+each consumer. An optional property "mux-control-names" may contain a list of
+strings to label each of the mux controllers listed in the "mux-controls"
+property.
+
+Drivers for devices that use more than a single mux controller can use the
+"mux-control-names" property to map the name of the mux controller requested by
+the mux_control_get() call to an index into the list given by the
+"mux-controls" property.
+
+mux-ctrl-specifier typically encodes the chip-relative mux controller number.
+If the mux controller chip only provides a single mux controller, the
+mux-ctrl-specifier can typically be left out.
+
+Example:
+
+       /* One consumer of a 2-way mux controller (one GPIO-line) */
+       mux: mux-controller {
+               compatible = "mux-gpio";
+               #mux-control-cells = <0>;
+
+               mux-gpios = <&pioA 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+       };
+
+       adc-mux {
+               compatible = "iio-mux";
+               io-channels = <&adc 0>;
+               io-channel-names = "parent";
+               mux-controls = <&mux>;
+               mux-control-names = "adc";
+
+               channels = "sync", "in";
+       };
+
+Note that in the example above, specifying the "mux-control-names" is redundant
+because there is only one mux controller in the list.
+
+       /*
+        * Two consumers (one for an ADC line and one for an i2c bus) of
+        * parallel 4-way multiplexers controlled by the same two GPIO-lines.
+        */
+       mux: mux-controller {
+               compatible = "mux-gpio";
+               #mux-control-cells = <0>;

+               };
+       };
+
+
+Mux controller nodes
+--------------------
+
+Mux controller nodes must specify the number of cells used for the
+specifier using the '#mux-control-cells' property.
+
+An example mux controller might look like this:
+
+       mux: adg792a@50 {
+               compatible = "adi,adg792a";
+               reg = <0x50>;
+               #mux-control-cells = <1>;
+       };

+GPIO-based multiplexer controller bindings
+
+Define what GPIO pins are used to control a multiplexer. Or several
+multiplexers, if the same pins control more than one multiplexer.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "mux-gpio"
+- mux-gpios : list of gpios used to control the multiplexer, least
+             significant bit first.
+- #mux-control-cells : <0>
+* Standard mux-controller bindings as decribed in mux-controller.txt
+
+Optional properties:
+- idle-state : if present, the state the mux will have when idle.
+
+The multiplexer state is defined as the number represented by the
+multiplexer GPIO pins, where the first pin is the least significant
+bit. An active pin is a binary 1, an inactive pin is a binary 0.
+
+Example:
+
+       mux: mux-controller {

+               #mux-control-cells = <0>;
