I don't think you need current_lsb_uA, see below ...

.. this is the only place where current_lsb_uA is used ...

1st: shunt_div no longer exists, but shunt_voltage_lsb[nV], so this code does
not even compile ...

This function does two things - range check and calculation of the
curren_lsb_uA auxiliary variable.

Lets start with the second part:

read_raw returns the IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL
val / val2 = current_lsb_uA / 1000 (1)


from set_shunt_resistor(...):

dividend = 1e9 / shunt_div (2)
current_lsb_uA = dividend / shunt_resistor_uohm (3)

shunt_div no longer exists, but can be substituted:
shunt_div = 1e6 / shunt_voltage_lsb (4)

substituting (2), (3) and (4) in (1), we end up with

val / val2 = 1e9 / (shunt_div * shunt_resistor_uohm * 1000)

=> val / val2 = 1e6 / ((1e6 / shunt_voltage_lsb) * shunt_resistor_uohm)
=> val / val2 = shunt_voltage_lsb / shunt_resistor_uohm
=> [mA] = [nV] / [uOhm]

The auxiliary variable is gone, as are the two DIV_ROUND_CLOSEST calls.


Part 2, range check:

lower bound is obviously 1 uOhm. The upper bound is only limited by
typeof(val2) and typeof(shunt_resistor_uohm), both are ints.

so the range check can be simplified to

if (val == 0 || val > INT_MAX)
return -EINVAL

Kind regards,
