I was wondering if the correct approach for the v8 series is to create
a new branch based on iio/testing and add the remaining patches onto
it?

These would include the needed changes: the property_present check for
the label (former patch 6), the new precursor patch for the EEPROM
mutex (former patch 9 split into 2 patches), along with the refactoring
and SPI support additions (former patches 10 and 11).

Please let me know if this is the preferred way to handle it.

Best regards,
Ariana
