@Jonathan, this patch requires 91f75ccf9f03 ("iio: temperature: tmp006:
add triggered buffer support"), which is in the mainline kernel, but not
accessible from iio/fixes-to-greg.

Is there any branch in IIO where the fixes and the new features are put
together? I would like to rebase my series to automatically get rid of
the applied patches, but iio/fixes-to-greg (where the patches were
applied) does not have the feature this patch fixes. Of course I can
manually drop the applied patches, but that is error-prone.

This is not the first time I face this inconvenience, and I suppose
there is a cleaner way that I might be missing, or maybe that branch I
am looking for already exists.

Thanks and best regards,
Javier Carrasco
