The flow in this function is horrendous. IF you have time would you mind
doing a follow up patch that just breaks it in two. Then have
if (opt->use_irq)
opt3001_get_processed_irq();
else
opt3001_get_processed_noirq();

Maybe there is some code at the end that is worth sharing - you'll have to have
a play to see if that is worth doing.

(If this was in your other patch set already then I'll blame lack of coffee!)

Applied this to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git and marked for stable.
