So the key thing here is what does this path mean.  trig == NULL
means we are clearing the current trigger.  The snag is you just jumped
over the code that removes the old trigger or sets
indio_dev->trig = NULL.

So I think the new version you have here is broken.

For changes like this it is fairly easy to test them using the
dummy driver.  Please make sure to do so and make sure you trigger
all paths.  Here that would be.

No trigger -> trigger 1
trigger 1 -> trigger 2
trigger 2 -> no trigger

This and...

this need to run if oldtrig was set and trig is not.
