Okay, then maybe say so in the doc too. Otherwise this looks like a doc about
ad3552r driver that is said to support both SPI and hs SPI setups, but only
info about hs SPI is provided.

Agree, the sysfs interface we often refer to as device attributes is documented
in sysfs-bus-iio. Though, some of the docs for other IIO drivers complement the
ABI doc by elaborating on the regular sysfs interface they provide. If there
would be anything else to say about AD3552R interface, it could be added here.
Anyway, I think it's also fine to only have the debugfs if there is nothing
special about the other sysfs files.
