I have just checked datasheet, so, there are 4 pairs of BE16 registers.Â

VBAT (Hi:Lo) 0x54
DIETEMP 0x56
BPTHERM 0x58
GPADC 0x5a

So, I would create a separate address mapping for them, dropping out
that _LOW suffix and put a comment that they are BE16 since ADC has 10-
bit resolution.

Or even do a separate ADC driver under drivers/iio/adc for PMIC(s).
