Subject: [PATCH] iio: gyro: bmg160: optimize i2c transfers in trigger handler

Some i2c busses (e.g.: Synopsys DesignWare I2C adapter) need to
enable/disable the bus at each i2c transfer and must wait for
the enable/disable to happen before sending the data.

When reading data in the trigger handler, the bmg160 driver does
one i2c transfer for each axis. This has an impact on the frequency
of the gyroscope at high sample rates due to additional delays
introduced by the i2c bus at each transfer.

Reading all axis values in one i2c transfer reduces the delays
introduced by the i2c bus.
