Hmm.  This could be done with existing code and a new info_mask element.
The disadvantage is you'd have to change the read_raw to read_raw_multi
callback, but that's hardly a big job.  If I could be bothered, I'd
move the whole subsystem over and drop read_raw entirely.

It was introduced precisely for this sort of element.

As I mentioned deeper in the thread.  If we are going to introduce a mounting
matrix, I'd prefer a version that includes translation.  It might not matter
to many devices but it has mattered a lot to me in the past and doesn't hurt
others that much (I used to write papers on how to estimate this stuff
from black box devices).

Hmm. if (i != 8) should also do the job with slightly less feedling of
magic..

Hmm. No absolute need to have this new data in the iio_dev.  I'd do it
via the read_raw_multi callback, though this will require converting read_raw
over to that more flexible version.
