I should've re-read the whole driver code before replying. I see we
already have an enum for colours (with comments telling that some of the
colours do not have fixed channel). So, my point objecting the enum is
kind of moot. Unfortunately I chose the clear to be before IR, which
means that if we used existing enum we would have a gap in the array
(because clear is not used for lux computation). Not sure it matters
though :)
