i think this is my fault for not CC-ing the entire series to you:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-iio/list/?series=531879
this is part of a larger conversion to devm_ for ST sensors;
i was hoping that if i CC you on one patch, then git send-email would
CC you on the entire set;
doesn't seem to be the case;
i'll try to remember that on the next sets;
[but maybe having this written here, will help me remember]
