As per reply to the earlier thread.  Don't base on linux-next.
It can be very unstable though not so much later in a cycle like this.

If there isn't a lot of churn going on in the driver, fine to base on
previous release kernel or rc1 (good to say if it is an rc1)

If there is churn underway (which is true here) then iio/togreg + extra
patches lists that need to be applied listed in this cover letter.

I'm also fine with you just adding the devm patch to this series as
the first patch.
