I'll comment this one in the driver. I have some questions on how this works...

The name seems to be wrong with what you have implemented. From this
description, I would think of this as a DT property? Can the signal type really
change at runtime?

There's a standard attr for this. I think we settled

I'm not yet convinced we need the dec_rate custom attr. I'll add more comments
in the driver.

Yup. filter_type and filter_type_available.

If we do need it, in another driver recently we concluded that
decimation rate is the same as oversampling ratio and there is
already a standard attribute for oversampling ratio, so we used
that.
