No blank line here. Fixes is part of the tag block and some tooling
falls over if it sees a blank line.

There are bots checking this on upstream trees btw.

With that blank line removed, applied to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git and
marked for stable. Note I might not do a pull request until the merge window
is over as I don't have anything particularly urgent and it can get messy!

Thanks,

Jonathan
