This driver sets the shift value equal to IIO_BE (or 1) rather than setting that to 0 and specificying the endianness. This means the channel type is missreported as [be|le]:u16/16>>1 where the be|le is dependent on the cpu native endianness, rather than be:u16/16>>0 resulting in any userspace code using this information, miss converting the channel and generating thoroughly trashed data.
