My bot found errors running 'make dt_binding_check' on your patch:

yamllint warnings/errors:

dtschema/dtc warnings/errors:
/builds/robherring/dt-review-ci/linux/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/adc/adi,ad4170.yaml: properties:interrupt-names: 'enum' should not be valid under {'enum': ['const', 'enum', 'exclusiveMaximum', 'exclusiveMinimum', 'minimum', 'maximum', 'multipleOf', 'pattern']}

See https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/devicetree-bindings/patch/187e038cb9e7dbe3991149885cb0a4b30376660c.1748829860.git.marcelo.schmitt@analog.com

The base for the series is generally the latest rc1. A different dependency
should be noted in *this* patch.

If you already ran 'make dt_binding_check' and didn't see the above
error(s), then make sure 'yamllint' is installed and dt-schema is up to
date:

pip3 install dtschema --upgrade

Please check and re-submit after running the above command yourself. Note
that DT_SCHEMA_FILES can be set to your schema file to speed up checking
your schema. However, it must be unset to test all examples with your schema.
