+I/O channel multiplexer bindings
+
+If a multiplexer is used to select which hardware signal is fed to
+e.g. an ADC channel, these bindings describe that situation.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible : "io-channel-mux"
+- io-channels : Channel node of the parent channel that has multiplexed
+		input.
+- io-channel-names : Should be "parent".
+- #address-cells = <1>;
+- #size-cells = <0>;
+- mux-controls : Mux controller node to use for operating the mux
+- channels : List of strings, labeling the mux controller states.
+
+For each non-empty string in the channels property, an io-channel will
+be created. The number of this io-channel is the same as the index into
+the list of strings in the channels property, and also matches the mux
+controller state. The mux controller state is described in
+../mux/mux-controller.txt
+
+Example:
+	mux: mux-controller {
+		compatible = "mux-gpio";
+		#mux-control-cells = <0>;
+
+		mux-gpios = <&pioA 0 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>,
+			    <&pioA 1 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
+	};
+
+	adc-mux {
+		compatible = "io-channel-mux";
+		io-channels = <&adc 0>;
+		io-channel-names = "parent";
+
+		mux-controls = <&mux>;
+
+		channels = "sync", "in", "system-regulator";
+	};
