This is less readable than the split version.

	const s64 delta_threshold;

Also, what const gives us here?

	delta_threshold =
		INV_SENSORS_TIMESTAMP_MIN(INV_SENSORS_MIN_IT_DELTA, ts->chip.jitter);

(yes, I would go for a bit longer line).

And why to assign it if we have to return, for example here?
Move the assignment closer to its first user.
