patch "iio: Fix error handling in iio_trigger_attach_poll_func" added to staging-linus

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

iio: Fix error handling in iio_trigger_attach_poll_func

to my staging git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: Fix error handling in iio_trigger_attach_poll_func

When attaching a pollfunc iio_trigger_attach_poll_func will allocate a virtual irq and call the driver's set_trigger_state function. Fix error handling to undo previous steps if any fails.

In particular this fixes handling errors from a driver's set_trigger_state function. When using triggered buffers a failure to enable the trigger used to make the buffer unusable.
