Yes, I will add the following supplies in the next iteration:
- 'vcc-supply' for VCC
- 'avp-supply' for the analog V+
- 'avn-supply' for the analog V-

and add them in the required list of properties.

Are the names correct for these power supplies (avp and avn) ?

I will add the 'wp-gpios' property.

And for the Krzystof comment on iio.yaml, as he suggested, I will drop iio.yaml.

Thanks for the review,
