Greg Kroah-Hartman 48436e82fd First set of IIO fixes for the 4.5 cycle.
This set comprises those not dependent on patches in the 4.5 merge cycle.
 A second set will follow shortly with ones that are.
 
 * core in kernel interfaces
   - fix a possible NULL dereference that is a theoretical possibility
     via odd usage of iio_channel_release. Pretty much a hardening of
     the interface, but observed in the wild with the twl4030_charger
     driver.
 * acpi-als
   - report the data as processed as it is in lux.  This fixes a wrong
     use of the IIO ABI.  However, old _raw version retained to avoid
     breaking any userspace in the wild that is relying on that (none
     known but it doesn't hurt us much to retain it)
 * ade7753
   - fix some error handling to avoid use of unitialized data.
 * ltr501
   - use a signed return type for ltr501_match_samp_freq so as to allow
     returning of an error code.
 * mcp4725
   - set name field of struct iio_dev to ensure the sysfs name attribute
     doesn't give NULL.
 * mpl115
   - temperature offset sign is wrong.
 * stk8ba50
   - IIO_TRIGGER dependency added
 * ti_am335x_adc
   - Label buffer as a software buffer. It's actually a hybrid of a
     true hardware buffer feeding a kfifo, but the meaning of these fields
     has changed a little recently and in this case it should be labeled
     a software buffer ensure it is allowed to use the kfifo.
 * vf610_adc
   - HAS_IOMEM dependency
