[v2] iio: adc: ad9467: Fix the "don't allow reading vref if not available" case

Commit Message

Christophe JAILLET Dec. 6, 2024, 4:39 p.m. UTC
The commit in Fixes adds a special case when only one possible scale is
available.
If several scales are available, it sets the .read_avail field of the
struct iio_info to ad9467_read_avail().

However, this field already holds this function pointer, so the code is a
no-op.

Use another struct iio_info instead to actually reflect the intent
described in the commit message. This way, the structure to use is selected
at runtime and they can be kept as const.

This is safer because modifying static structs that are shared between all
instances like this, based on the properties of a single instance, is
asking for trouble down the road.

This patch is compile tested only and is completely speculative.

Changes in v2:
  - use another struct iio_info to keep the structure const

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kernel/556f87c8931d7d7cdf56ebc79f974f8bef045b0d.1733431628.git.christophe.jaillet@wanadoo.fr/

Agree entirely with David that this is the way to go.

Applied to the fixes-togreg branch of iio.git.

Thanks,
