Given timing late in the cycle, I've queued this up for the next merge
window rather than rushing it in.
Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing.
Note I plan to rebase that branch shortly as I need some stuff that
is in upstream for other series. Hence still time for this discussion to
continue if anyone wants to!
