Subject: [PATCH 4.9 105/245] iio: light: tcs3414: Fix buffer alignment in iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp()

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

[ Upstream commit ff08fbc22ab32ccc6690c21b0e5e1d402dcc076f ]

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 uses of
iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp()

Fixes: a244e7b57f0f ("iio: Add driver for AMS/TAOS tcs3414 digital color sensor")
