Subject: [PATCH 4.14 144/315] iio: adc: mxs-lradc: Fix buffer alignment in iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp()

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

[ Upstream commit 6a6be221b8bd561b053f0701ec752a5ed9007f69 ]

To make code more readable, use a structure to express the channel
layout and ensure the timestamp is 8 byte aligned.
Add a comment on why the buffer is the size it is as not immediately
obvious.

Found during an audit of all calls of this function.
