[PATCH 4.14 35/94] iio: accel: kxsd9: Fix alignment of local buffer.

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 21 2020 - 12:38:12 EST


From: Jonathan Cameron <Jonathan.Cameron@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit 95ad67577de4ea08eb8e441394e698aa4addcc0b upstream.

iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp assumes 8 byte alignment which
is not guaranteed by an array of smaller elements.

Note that whilst in this particular case the alignment forcing
of the ts element is not strictly necessary it acts as good
documentation. Doing this where not necessary should cut
down on the number of cut and paste introduced errors elsewhere.

Fixes: 0427a106a98a ("iio: accel: kxsd9: Add triggered buffer handling")
