Thanks but nope, not that one.

At that point ad2s1210_setup_gpios, didn't use st->sdev.
I think this went wrong when the platform data was removed in 

I 'think' it was
Fixes: f356dc6ec26b ("staging: iio: ad2s1210: Switch to the gpio descriptor interface")

Only 5 years :)

Welcome to the long tail of IIO Devices and the long term availability of the
hardware - this is still a production part.  Clearly no one was using the
upstream driver for 5 + years, but here comes David who is not only fixing
the bugs but cleaning it up.

Hmm. What happened to roadtest? I was hoping that would solve this sort
of issue by allowing simple testing of basic functionality... Hope it
is still headed for a new version / upstream!
