Subject: [PATCH] iio: adc: ad7606: check for NULL before calling
sw_mode_config()
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Check that the sw_mode_config function pointer is not NULL before calling it. Not all buses define this callback, which resulted in a NULL pointer dereference.
