Hi Jonathan,
Indeed, we're picking a pair from the channels that can be used as
single channels otherwise.
Also, it doesn't makes sense to leave the choice to userspace: when
these channels are used in differential mode, both input should be
biased. This is quite dependent on hardware (board), not really a
runtime choice.
Hope this clarifies ?

You're right, I should have added that. Please let me know if I can add
bellow example in v2:
Example to setup differential channels 1, 2 & 3 (with resp. 0, 6 & 7
negative inputs):
adc: adc@40022000 {
compatible = "st,stm32h7-adc-core";
...
adc1: adc@0 {
compatible = "st,stm32h7-adc";
...
st,adc-diff-channels = <1 0>, <2 6>, <3 7>;
};
};
Thanks for reviewing,
Best Regards,
Fabrice
