Looks quite good in general, a few minor things inline.

If there is only one scale available it does not make too much sense to have
a scale_available attribute.

1 is a bit of a magic constant here. Use IIO_MOD_X instead. Or even better
use chan->address.

Does it make sense to check whether chip ID matches the expected value, to
catch mistakes where the I2C address is incorrect?
