Subject: Re: [PATCH] iio: adis16480: fix FNCTIO_CTRL corruption when enabling
 IRQ

Hi,

Hm, right. But the intention of the driver is to use DIO1. Changing this to
DIO2 by default will break all existing users.

This change should be part of a patch which allows to configure which
interrupt output to use and also the interrupt polarity.
