This patch is in the category that make me nervous, so I'm
not going to rush it in as a fix. I've queued it up for the next
merge window (and marked it for Stable). Hopefully any issues will
shake out before it hits a release kernel.
Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing.
Oleksij, what do you want to do about the work around you had?
If you think it is a good cleanup, please resend so we get it to the
top of people's inboxes!
Thanks,
Jonathan
