Hi,

A suggestion inline.  This is a common case that we have infrastructure
to simplify.  + I think your scale factor is very slightly wrong.

Definitely 2^12 - 1?  That's a bit unusual if true as it would imply
that 2^12 - 1 and 0 were the same value.

Imagine a smaller version with on 2^2 bits so 0, 1, 2, 3
Values of each are

0, M_PI/2, M_PI, 3*M_PI/2

So the multiplier is 2*M_PI/(2^2) not 2*M_PI/(2^2 - 1)
1/2 vs 2/3 * M_PI

Now this is a very common case so we have the return type
IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL_LOG2 to give a more obvious and potentially
more accurate representation.
