Similar to previous. It's tidying up an inelegant bit of code, but no
actual bug due to checks at the caller. Hence I've dropped the fixes
tag and added a note to the commit description for anyone considering backporting.
Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing for
0-day to take a look at it and see if we missed anything.
Thanks,
Jonathan
