Ok, I'm going with sense-gain-mult and sense-gain-div, but I'm going to
diverge a little bit from the clock binding and make them optional with
a default of 1 if missing.

I'm also going to use the compatible "current-sense-amplifier", and not
mention the LT6106, because I suspect that part can conceivable be used
in other ways...

But I'll wait for a bit with this and give everybody a last chance to
pitch suggestions and opinions.

Cheers,
Peter
