From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@xxxxxxxxxx> The original reason for this behaviour is long gone and no current drivers are making use of this function correctly. Note however, that you would be very unlucky to actually hit the problem as it would require a bus comms failure in the callback. This dates back a long way. The original board on which I did a lot of early IIO development only supported edge interrupts, but some of the sensors were level interrupt based. As such, the lis3l02dq driver did a dance with checking a GPIO to identify if it should retrigger. That was an unsustainable hack so we later just stopped supporting interrupts for that particular combination. There are a number of drivers where a fault on a bus read in the try_reenable() callback will result in them returning non 0 and incorrectly then causing iio_trigger_poll() to be called. Anyhow, this handling is unused and causing issues so let us rip it out. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20200813075358.13310-1-lars@xxxxxxxxxx/ After this the try_reenable() naming makes no sense, so as a follow up patch I'll rename it to simply reenable(). I haven't done that here as it will add noise to the fix for backporting.
