The current scale is not ABI-compliant as it is just the sensor gain
instead of the value that acts as a multiplier to be applied to the raw
value (there is no offset).

Use the iio-gts helpers to obtain the proper scale values according to
the gain and integration time to match the resolution tables from the
datasheet.

Just a question - do you ensure there is no "invalid" register values? I think Jonathan has prefered doing this by writing known initialization values at probe.

I *think* the GTS should survive cases where multiple bit patterns can be used to represent same gain/time - but I don't remember this for sure.

I didn't have the time to do a proper thorough review - sorry. Still, what I browsed quickly looked good :) Thanks!
