Need to also set the relevant bit in
info_mask_shared_by_xxx_avail in the channels for the sysfs files to be created
by calling the read_avail() callback.

When I introduced those I thought about making it mandatory to introduce them
for all the info_mask_shared_by_xxx entries and not having the extra bitmap
but that meant figuring out the relevant entries for a mass of stuff whenever
a driver was converted from the old approach like you've used here.

Let's see how it looks in v2.

Yup, though if you've provided the reset defaults that should be quick.
