You reported this a while back along with a second issue (false positive)
with hwval.
I posted a patch fixing both
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20221002145324.3776484-1-jic23@xxxxxxxxxx/
I don't really care which patch goes in, but curious to reasoning to not also
deal with the hwval warning here?
