I would like to point out that one of the commit messages was destroyed
in the rebase. I.e. commit 9cf6cdba586c ("iio: pressure: mpl3115: do not
rely on structure field ordering") is now missing this line:

# cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device1/in_pressure_scale_available

which was present before the "Segmentation fault" line before the patch
was rebased. Without the missing line, the commit message makes much
less sense...

Can this please be fixed? Perhaps there is even time for it to make v4.10?

Cheers,
