Please don't use inline in 'c' files, either move to an header or drop
the 'inline' keyword. A few more occurences below.

Minor nit: it looks like you could de-dup some code above reusing the
get_snapshot_if_supported() helper. I see the code could end-up
allocating the structure just to free it in case of unsupported channel,
but I think it still would be better.

It looks like the same largish switch is present in
mse_get_one_channel(), I think it would be better to factor it out in a
common helper.

Minor: possibly return 'ret' instead? Also you could possibly
consolidate the 2 error path using a single nest variable.
