Hi Lothar.

I think this is suffering from function naming evolution and we need
to rethink (slightly) what we ended up with.  See inline.
I walked into the same trap recently so was on the look out for it.

Same issue as below for read functions.

This has me a little confused. It's called
adxl313_write_mag_value() which seems pretty specific but
then calls another level of _adxl313_write_mag_value.

In the next patch (assuming diff isn't leading me astray) we have

@@ -600,13 +687,17 @@ static int adxl313_write_mag_value(struct adxl313_data *data,
 				   enum iio_event_direction dir,
 				   enum iio_event_info info,
 				   enum adxl313_activity_type type_act,
+				   enum adxl313_activity_type type_inact,
 				   int val, int val2)
 {
 	switch (info) {
 	case IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE:
 		return _adxl313_write_mag_value(data, dir,
 						type_act,
+						type_inact,
 						val, val2);
+	case IIO_EV_INFO_PERIOD:
+		return adxl313_set_inact_time_s(data, val);
 	default:
 		return -EINVAL;
 	}


Which is adding PERIOD to something called write_mag_value()

Whilst I can see why you ended up with naming as:

adxl313_write_mag_value() as the magnitude event specific part of
adxl13_event_write_value()

and indeed

_adxl313_write_mag_value() as the thing that writes IIO_EV_INFO_VALUE
value (i.e. the threshold) for the magnitude events.

Last time I hit a similar naming stack, I spinkled in some _info

So have the inner one called something slightly more specific like

adxl313_write_mag_info_value()

Otherwise LGTM
