Subject: [PATCH 4.9 083/310] iio: hi8435: avoid garbage event at first enable

4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Nikita Yushchenko <nikita.yoush@...entembedded.com>


[ Upstream commit ee19ac340c5fdfd89c6348be4563453c61ab54a9 ]

Currently, driver generates events for channels if new reading differs
from previous one. This "previous value" is initialized to zero, which
results into event if value is constant-one.

Fix that by initializing "previous value" by reading at event enable
time.

This provides reliable sequence for userspace:
- enable event,
- AFTER THAT read current value,
- AFTER THAT each event will correspond to change.
