Not quite right (I think).  The caller of iio_trigger_poll_nested() might not
be this driver.  There are other potential triggers that are nested
because of need to check some status register, but can still be used
for other devices.   In theory you could drive light capture of
the as3935 for when you want to know how bright it was just after
a lightening strike :)

We don't have a general solution for timestamps when that
happens, so this driver is papering over that with this code.
