Sounds good to me.  I'll pick it up through IIO given the small changes
there and the fact you are happy with it.  Shout if you would prefer
a different route. Given timing I won't be pushing this out on a non
rebasing tree for a week or so anyway.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing for
autobuilders to play with it.

Thanks,

Jonathan
