[PATCH v4 1/2] dt-bindings: mux: gpio-mux: add enable-gpios support
From: Antoniu Miclaus
Date: Fri Jan 16 2026 - 10:38:20 EST
Add support for an optional enable GPIO that allows the multiplexer
to be disabled before changing address lines and re-enabled after,
preventing glitches during channel transitions.
This is useful for devices like the Analog Devices ADG2404 (4:1 mux)
that benefit from enable control to ensure clean channel switching.

Changes in v4:
* Add ADG2404 to binding description for discoverability
* Add dedicated ADG2404 example showing enable-gpios usage
* Update commit message to reference ADG2404 as use case
