Will add it.

ACK - I will split the patch.

The return values in this driver are not checked consistently, and this
aligns with the other call(s) of `regmap_read`. But I agree - it's not
related to the issue.

Yes - for consistency.

I'm not sure if I get you correct, as this function is not directly
called in `read_pressure`:
You suggest dropping this function at all, call
`dps310_get_pres_precision` directly in `dps310_calculate_pressure` and
move the lookup of the compensation scale factor there?

Based on my interpretation above:
For `dps310_get_temp_k` it would require to move the lookup of the
compensation scale factor to `dps310_calculate_pressure` and
`dps310_calculate_temp`.
Maybe this would simplify the code, but it would make it harder to read.
