Since we are merging the mfd driver into the iio adc driver we need to

Most of your commit logs a pretty short, and this is an issue for
people lacking context. This would be the reviewers, but also users
bisecting to see where there's a bug, or you in a couple of years from
now :)

Every commit log should be as complete as possible. In this case, you
are saying what you are doing, but this is actually redundant with the
patch, I can already tell what you are doing by reading the rest of
the mail. However, what is really important is *why* you are doing it.

information that has been dropped.
