Hmm maybe Jonathan will have some feedback on this (and if it is okay
to break the ABI interface). Been awhile since I've touched
this driver and a little rusty on iio events.  But I am guessing your
method makes sense since the event(s) has direction and a type, and
can't just have one of the .mask_shared_by_dir and mask_shared_by_type.

In any case:
