Hmm, wouldn't the right fix be to also move the
iio_triggered_buffer_setup() call to inside the:

	if (client->irq > 0 && data->acpi_type != ACPI_SMO8500) {
	}

block ?

Jonathan (jic23) can you take a look at this, to me it seems that having
a triggered buffer allocated without any triggers is not useful ?
