Applied, with addition of fixes tag to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git.
Slightly messy at this point in the cycle, but I can't push this out until
Linus takes Greg's char-misc-next pull request as otherwise linux-next will
get the content of Greg's tree via mine an potentially make a mess.

Should only matter for a few days though then I'll push my fixes-togreg branch
out (which I've moved to being based on char-misc-next to allow me to apply
a few patches for things only recently introduced).
