There is a type mismatch between the buffer which is of type s16 and the samples stored, which are declared as __le16. Fix the following sparse warning: drivers/iio/imu/bmi160/bmi160_core.c:411:26: warning: incorrect type in assignment (different base types) drivers/iio/imu/bmi160/bmi160_core.c:411:26: expected signed short [signed] [short] [explicitly-signed] <noident> drivers/iio/imu/bmi160/bmi160_core.c:411:26: got restricted __le16 [addressable] [usertype] sample This is a cosmetic-type patch since it does not alter code behaviour. The le16 is going into a 16bit buf element, and is labelled as IIO_LE in the channel buffer definition.
