Given you can't actually get here with another channel type by any
valid means, this is more a form of code as documentation than anything
else. Still it does no harm and arguably does make it easier to read.

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

A nice little clean up series. Thanks!
