Indeed, I should have mentioned this patch depends on Joe's
ae8cc91a7d85 ("iio: adc: max9611: Fix misuse of GENMASK macro")
which is now in linux-next, otherwise it might atually trigger errors
due to the wrong mask value.
I wonder if there's a way to keep track of these dependencies for the
sake of backporting, or it's an operation that has to be carried out
manually...
Thanks
