Re: [PATCH 1/2] iio: pressure: mpl3115: do not rely on structure field ordering

I don't think that this is a proper fix

maybe the driver is unique in that it uses mask_separate for INFO_SCALE 
and not by_type, but since there is just one PRESSURE channel, it should 
be equivalent

what do you mean by 'driver which assumed a specific structure'?

thanks, p.
