Thanks.  I added the driver name to the title though as people tend
to scan lists of commits to see if there is anything they care about
and this only effects on driver rather than all adcs.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pusehd out as testing for the
autobuilders to play with it.

thanks,

Jonathan
