Things are still not really defined on the code side (I know bindings don't care about the driver
side) but io-backend-names is a standard property and we might actually end up using it so that
we know how to map the backend to a given channel. Unless what you're saying is that in here, -names
doesn't really makes sense given that we just want n io-backends for n adc channels and having 
-names as "adc1", "adc2", "adcn" is arguably useless.
