There is one small quirk here I'd forgotten about, but seems unlikely to
cause too many problems.  There are triggers that only call
iio_trigger_poll_chained (which is badly named) and as a result
only end up calling the thread part.  That would result in no
timestamp.

It's a hole we really ought to figure out a reliable fix for that
effects lots of drivers.

Anyhow, I doubt anyone is using this device with that set of triggers
so should be fine whilst we think about a more general solution.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing
for the autobuilders to play with it.

Thanks,

Jonathan
