Subject: [PATCH 1/3] iio: adxl372: Provide validate_trigger and validate_device callbacks

This patch provides a validate_device callback for the trigger which makes
sure that other devices are rejected.

I wonder, if the device only works with the trigger and the trigger only
works with the device should we actually register a trigger?

Seems to be just extra hassle when setting up the device without any extra
benefits.

I wondered the same, but there is a reason to do this if we think we
will eventually have support for other triggers (which looks possible
for
this device as we can bypass the fifo). Then we want to do it in order
to avoid a breaking ABI change. There is a way around that by setting
a default trigger so that it'll still use this one unless it is
explicitly
set but that is rather ugly!

Hi Lars, Stefan,

I'll apply this as is, but if we continue this debate and reach another
conclusion we can always make a change during this cycle.

Plenty of time left!

Thanks,

Jonathan
