Ouch.
I overlooked the fact that the buffer was also used by iio-dmaengine
(which I had not configured to be compiled). Also the
cros_ec_sensors_core.c evaded my grep.
Changing these to use iio_dev_attrs as well seems trivial - but I am
afraid there may be other culprits if the pointers to those buffer
attributes are memcpy()-ed somewhere else as well... (The attribute wrap
function did this).
I will include cros_ec_sensors_core.c and industrialio-dmaengine.c
changes and re-spin the series - but I guess I need to add [RFT] here...
Best regards
