Ah. I'd not really understood what was going on here.  This is fine as
is.

regmap bulk accesses (when spi anyway) should be provided with DMA safe buffers.
Easiest way to do that is add one with __aligned(IIO_DMA_MINALIGN) to the end
of the ad8460_state structure.  Possibly you'll need a lock to protect it - I haven't
checked.

That is an endian conversion so use appropriate endian function to fill it efficiently
and document clearly what is going on.

Hmm. I'd like to see this brought inline with the other iio backend
drivers if possible.
