Ah, nice catch!

Ideally, I would pick commit ca9a563805f7ae821e3303b1bdbc65d3a3c783ff
("iio: ti_am335x_adc: Add continuous sampling support"), which adds
this scan_index initialisation. However, this commit doesn't seem be
suitable for a stable kernel, so I'll add this patch to the 3.11.10.14
queue branch. Thanks a lot, Jan.

Cheers,
