The ADPD188BI is a complete photometric system for smoke
detection using optical dual wavelength technology. The module
integrates an efficient photometric front end, two light
emitting diodes (LEDs), and two photodiodes (PDs).

The front end of the application specific integrated circuit
(ASIC) consists of a control block, a 14-bit analog-to-digital
converter (ADC) with a 20-bit burst accumulator, and three
flexible, independently configurable LED drivers.

Datasheet information here: https://www.analog.com/media/en/technical-documentation/data-sheets/adpd188bi.pdf

The device is controlled via either SPI or I2C interface.

The first implementation used adpd188_spi/i2c.c to initialize regmap that
was then used in the core driver source. But the I2C implementation needed
to work with multiple daisy-chained devices. The properties of the
daisy-chained devices is that only one of them sets the sampling rate
automatically while the others sample when they receive a sample ready
signal from the previous device and only the last of the chain forwards and
interrupt to the host, which needs to read data from all devices at that
point.

Moreover, all devices start on power-up with the same I2C address, which is
not configurable in the hardware. It needs to be configured in software by
changing a register. To differentiate between devices that need to change
address and those that don't we set devices to change only when their GPIO1
is held high. Each device has its GPIO1 tied to GPIO0 of the previous
device, except the first device, which has its GPIO1 tied low.

So the way to change the addresses is as follows:
1. Set all GPIO1 to high.
2. Change devices that have GPIO1 tied high to a new address.
3. Change GPIO1 to low for devices of the old address.
4. Go to new address and repeat from step 1.

Because of this, a single driver instance ends up controlling multiple
physical devices that are daisy-chained at the same time.
