Subject: [PATCH v1 1/9] iio: inkern: always apply scale requested by consumer

From: Liam Beguin <lvb@...hos.com>

When a consumer calls iio_read_channel_processed() and no scaling is
available on the channel, it's assumed that the scale is one and the raw
value is returned as expected.

On the other hand, if the consumer calls iio_convert_raw_to_processed()
the scaling factor requested by the consumer is not applied.
This for example causes the consumer to process mV when expecting uV.

Make sure to always apply the scaling factor requested by the consumer.
