[PATCH v2] iio: mcp320x: Fix occasional incorrect readings
From: Michael Welling
Date: Wed May 06 2015 - 12:50:00 EST
Without the cacheline alignment, the readings will occasionally incorrectly
return 0.

v2: Moved buffers to the end of the mcp320x struct per suggestion to keep
them on their own cacheline.
