Hi Jonathan,

For the above fix I am supplying the second parameter to IIO_UNMOD_EVENT_CODE()
as "0" which gives me the below output from userspace:
./iio_event_monitor /dev/iio:device0
Event: time: xx, type: illuminance, channel: 0, evtype: thresh, direction: either
Event: time: yy, type: intensity, channel: 0, evtype: thresh, direction: either

As I do not have indexed channels, I have used zero for both Light and Intensity
channel numbers. Should I make the intensity type as channel one for the output
to look like this?
Event: time: xx, type: illuminance, channel: 0, evtype: thresh, direction: either
Event: time: yy, type: intensity, channel: 1, evtype: thresh, direction: either

What do you think?
