This issue was found after attempting to make the same mistake for a driver I maintain, which was fortunately spotted by Jonathan [1]. Keeping old sensor values if the channel configuration changes is known and not considered an issue, which is also mentioned in [1], so it has not been addressed by this series. That keeps most of the drivers out of the way because they store the scan element in iio private data, which is kzalloc() allocated. This series only addresses cases where uninitialized i.e. unknown data is pushed to the userspace, either due to holes in structs or uninitialized struct members/array elements. While analyzing involved functions, I found and fixed some triviality (wrong function name) in the documentation of iio_dev_opaque.
