Hi, good to find this issue, but the 'right' fix is perhaps a little
more complex than present here.

This first case is fine - up to the fact that it should really be
shifting it appropriately to not give a false impression of precision.
Also correctly unwinding the case below may require some changes here
as well as the scale will change.

For this I'm not sure this is the correct fix.   The driver should not be lying
about the available data when describing the channel. Right now the
channel description is:

#define INA219_CHAN_VOLTAGE(_index, _address) { \
	.type = IIO_VOLTAGE, \
	.address = (_address), \
	.indexed = 1, \
	.channel = (_index), \
	.info_mask_separate = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW) | \
			      BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE) | \
			      BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_INT_TIME), \
	.info_mask_shared_by_dir = BIT(IIO_CHAN_INFO_SAMP_FREQ), \
	.scan_index = (_index), \
	.scan_type = { \
		.sign = 'u', \
		.realbits = 16, \
		.storagebits = 16, \
		.endianness = IIO_LE, \
	} \
}
Reading the datasheet this should be
.realbits = 13,
.shift = 3,
I think

Userspace is then responsible for masking and shifting the
data to not give a false impression of it's precision.

Clearly this with probably have some knock on effects that
will also need fixing.
