[PATCH] iio: osf: keep the RAW cache current when the buffer is full

[PATCH] iio: osf: keep the RAW cache current when the buffer is full

[Jinseob Kim]

A full IIO software kfifo returns -EBUSY from the buffer push. The
sample handler currently treats that as an application rejection and
returns before publishing the valid sample to the direct-read cache.
Consequently RAW values and the last accepted sequence remain stale
while a consumer is not draining the buffer.

Continue cache admission for this normal saturation condition. Keep
other push failures as errors, and retain all sample, scale and session
validation before publication. The buffered sample is still dropped
when the kfifo is full; subsequent samples can be queued after it drains.

Not a useful tag as I'll be rebasing.

Given this will go upstream with the driver anyway I've just dropped it.

Applied without that or the LLM tag (change of kernel policy).

Thanks,

Jonathan
