Ah, yes. Your code also uses tmp108->config in tmp108_restore_config(),
which I guess confused me.

Not sure I understand why you would want to add the wait time even if M1
was set before (and the tmp102 driver doesn't do that). Really, if that
is what you want, it would be much simpler if you just unconditionally
set ready_time to 30 ms after the current time after setting the M1 bit,
no matter if it was set before or not. I personally don't think that would
be such a good idea, but it would at least be less obfuscating than the
current code. Also, I would suggest to either drop tmp108_restore_config(),
or to have it restore the real original state.
