Fancy style. Utilize the entire width of the line, i.e. ~72 characters.

I recommend to shuffle it in a way that u8 members go closer to each
other if possible.

Like:

       const unsigned long *scan_masks;
       const struct iio_chan_spec *channels;
       u8 num_channels;
       u8 num_accel_scales;
       const int (*accel_scale)[2];
       const int *accel_scale_map;

It will save a few bytes per object instance due to padding reduction.

The idea about grouping all of them also can be done despite the
comment given previously by someone.

Can be modified to use standard pattern (return errors first), but
it's up to maintainers, because the latter requires an additional
check after the loop.

The
  if (a) {
    if (b) {
      ...
    }
  }

can be replaced by

  if (a && b) {
    ...
  }

As per above.
