Hmm... it seems like I thought there was a good reason for it at the time, but looking at it again, I agree with your assessment. > > In principle I'm open to such a patch and wonder if there is already a > merge plan for this series.

But there is ad7606 + AXI ADC support from Guillaume that was just merged that could make use of this. So I can send this as a stand-alone patch so that it can be made available for that too.
