Clarifications on my previous mail.

IRQ: I will use devm_request_threaded_irq() with a NULL primary handler and
IRQF_ONESHOT. disable_irq_nosync() is gone and the handler only calls
complete(). This also removes the bare `0` you asked about on v2 and v3,
with the arguments packed rather than one per line:

ret = devm_request_threaded_irq(dev, client->irq, NULL,
ads112c04_irq_handler,
IRQF_ONESHOT, indio_dev->name,
indio_dev);

I left out the DRDY status read for now, since conversions are
single-shot under the mutex. Happy to add it if you prefer.
