Hmm. I guess checkpatch is more stupid than I thought on this. Definitely
fine to ignore that shortcoming of checkpatch.

No problem. That's an odd historical corner case.   I liked having
clear values for 'currentmode' (now in iio_opaque) and those matching
the bits set in available modes.  So even if we didn't set it we'd end up
with a reserved bit which would add extra confusion.

The direct mode is currently just used as a placeholder for 'not a buffered mode',
rather than the state variable has never been set.
