Less than desirable behavior perhaps, but broken?  I don't see this
as a fix from what you have mentioned - though I'm not against it.
(just drop the fixes tag)
It is an ABI change, but unlikely to be one any sane code hits.

This is racy as nothing stops buffers being enabled after this point.
Use the iio_device_claim_direct_mode() and release for this as they
protect against the race.
