Subject: [PATCH v2 0/2] bmg160 driver optimizations

Adds optimization of i2c transactions in trigger handler and
usage of available_scan_masks for bmg160.

Changes in v2:
- fallback to i2c word transactions if i2c block transactions are not supported
- use available_scan_masks to let the iio core choose the values selected
by the user instead of doing the check in the driver's interrupt handler
- check functionality for i2c byte and word read

Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] iio: gyro: bmg160: use available_scan_masks

Use available_scan_masks to allow the iio core to select
the data to send to userspace depending on which axes are
enabled, instead of doing this in the driver's interrupt
handler.

This also fixes the issue of accessing the buffer scan_mask
instead of active_scan_mask, since these might not be the
same due to client devices.

Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] iio: gyro: bmg160: optimize i2c transfers in trigger handler

Some i2c busses (e.g.: Synopsys DesignWare I2C adapter) need to
enable/disable the bus at each i2c transfer and must wait for
the enable/disable to happen before sending the data.

When reading data in the trigger handler, the bmg160 driver does
one i2c transfer for each axis. This has an impact on the frequency
of the gyroscope at high sample rates due to additional delays
introduced by the i2c bus at each transfer.

Reading all axis values in one i2c transfer reduces the delays
introduced by the i2c bus. In case i2c block read is not supported,
fallback to reading each axis as a separate word.

same concerns as with bmc150 and kxcjk-1013
