This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: fix build when CONFIG_IIO_TRIGGERED_BUFFER=m
to my char-misc git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
in the char-misc-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: fix build when CONFIG_IIO_TRIGGERED_BUFFER=m
The following kernel linkage error:
st_lsm6dsx_core.o: in function `st_lsm6dsx_sw_buffers_setup':
st_lsm6dsx_core.c:2578: undefined reference to `devm_iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext'
is caused by the fact that the object owning devm_iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext()
(drivers/iio/buffer/industrialio-triggered-buffer.o) is allowed to be
built as module when its user (drivers/iio/imu/st_lsm6dsx/st_lsm6dsx_core.c)
is built-in.
The st_lsm6dsx driver already has a "select IIO_BUFFER", so add another
select for IIO_TRIGGERED_BUFFER, to make that option follow what is set
for the st_lsm6dsx driver. This is similar to what other iio drivers do.
