Re: [PATCH v2 4/4] hwmon: iio: add label for channels read by iio_hwmon

Currently, iio_hwmon only exposes values of the IIO channels it can read
but no label by channel is exposed.

This adds exposition of sysfs files containing label for IIO channels it
can read based on extended_name field of the iio_chan_spec of the channel.
If the extended_name field is empty, the sysfs file is not created by
iio_hwmon.

Can the name disappear on the fly, or be changed on the fly ?
Then this is unusable. We should and can only provide labels
if a name exists and is permanent. Otherwise all we do is
to confuse user space.

Why is this initialization here and not with the rest of the initialization

Just realized that we have a memory leak here. The 'name' memory is never released.
