AD7745 devices don't have the CIN2 pins and therefore can't handle related
channels. Forcing the number of AD7746 channels may lead to enabling more
channels than what the hardware actually supports.
Avoid num_channels being overwritten after first assignment.

ohh; good catch

this falls into the category of a fix, so a Fixes tag is required;
this looks so old, that i did not bother tracking it before
83e416f458d53  [which is 2011]

so, maybe something like:

Fixes: 83e416f458d53 ("staging: iio: adc: Replace, rewrite ad7745 from
scratch.")
ouch.  Given I was queuing up some fixes I've added this one to the fixes-togreg
branch of iio.git and marked it for stable.

So drop this one from your v2 series with the changes requested in patch 1.

Thanks,

Jonathan
