Hi Abhash,

Sampling frequency must be in Hz and reflect how often the channel
is sampled (not just the inter measurement period.  So this sounds wrong.
It is sometimes complex to compute but we have to stick to the documented
ABI.

Other comments inline.

Thanks

needed to define scope for that guard as you probably intend.

long lines. I don't mind going over 80 chars when readability is badly hurt, but
in this case it isn't so wrap the parameters.

As below.

Even though you now it in advance, I'd rather you used the vl6180_meas_reg_val_from_ms()
subject to the whole thing about it needing to be in Hz

Multiline comment syntax in IIO (and most of the rest of the kernel)
