Subject: [PATCH 4.14 125/315] iio: accel: stk8312: Fix buffer alignment in iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp()

From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@...wei.com>

[ Upstream commit f40a71ffec808e7e51848f63f0c0d3c32d65081b ]

To make code more readable, use a structure to express the channel
layout and ensure the timestamp is 8 byte aligned.

Found during an audit of all calls of this function.

Fixes: 95c12bba51c3 ("iio: accel: Add buffer mode for Sensortek STK8312")
