Hello Andy,
Thank you for the quick review. Please find my comments below.

Here I use blank lines to split fields from different registers.
In other words, in the msa311_fields enum one line contains fields from one
register. But for some heavy registers (like TAP_ACTIVE_STS) we have so many
fields and their declaration doesn't fit to 80 symbols.
So I've made a decision to split registers using blank lines.

Mainly I use i2c pointer in the probe() path, and you are right, we can
change i2c pointer to dev and generalize msa311_priv struct from bus
perspective.

Are you talking about archs where offset calculation adds more bytes to
instruction? And when offset equals to 0, we can save some space.

I suppose because of UHZ calculation I have to use NANO instead of
USEC_PER_SEC in the following line:
freq_uhz = msa311_odr_table[odr].val * USEC_PER_SEC +
msa311_odr_table[odr].val2;
But below line is right from physics perspective. 1sec = 1/Hz, so
msec = (USEC_PER_SEC / freq_uhz) * MSEC_PER_SEC:
wait_ms = (USEC_PER_SEC * MSEC_PER_SEC) / freq_uhz;
Or do you mean that I should change MSEC_PER_SEC to just MILLI?

Yes, I can move dev_err() outside of loop. But all ODR search loop
should be under lock fully, because other msa311 operations should not
be executed when we search proper ODR place.

Sorry, I don't understand. We do not need to call it under lock, right?
I think we have to wrap it by msa311 lock, because other msa311
operations should not be executed when we enable or disable new data
interrupt (for example ODR value changing or something else).

Yes, I plan to maintain this driver and implement all motion event,
that's why I've placed TODO throughout the code.

I set INDIO_DIRECT_MODE by default, because this driver support noirq
mode, when device tree doesn't have irq setup.

Again I don't understand why, sorry. We do not want to get sporadic
MSA311 attributes changing during power mode transition from another
userspace process.
