Ouch. Can you give an example of resulting user visible result? That
will help people decide whether to pick this up for their distro kernels
etc. In some cases, looks like we'll get garbage timestamps and in others
may get stale data (or garbage).
Odd no one has noticed this in the past whilst testing those dependent
features in particular drivers and I worry a little that we may have bugs
in the users as a result of iio_trigger_using_own() reporting the inverse
of the intended. I've take a quick look at the users and 'think' they are
ok, but would definitely like a few others to confirm.
Also on a practical basis I just sent a fixes pull request so this one
probably won't go anywhere for a week or so anyway so we have time.
