Hi Andrew,

Just taken a quick look at your mmotm list and see this ended up in the
mainline later group (fair enough given the timing!).
As such shall we fall back to plan b) a special git branch pulled into the trees
of anyone who cares?

I'll base such a tree on some obvious point in Linus' tree (either 4.4 or 4.5-rc1)
That way I can get the IIO stuff queued up asap and we can build on that going
forward during this cycle.

Thanks,

Jonathan
