Firstly, +1 on the patch in this thread being an incorrect change.
While inspecting the surrounding code,  I noticed that there's a bit of
questionable code in this area.  I believe this whole chunk:

	if (*(indio_dev->active_scan_mask) == AM2315_ALL_CHANNEL_MASK) {
		data->buffer[0] = sensor_data.hum_data;
		data->buffer[1] = sensor_data.temp_data;
	} else {
		i = 0;
		for_each_set_bit(bit, indio_dev->active_scan_mask,
				 indio_dev->masklength) {
			data->buffer[i] = (bit ? sensor_data.temp_data :
						 sensor_data.hum_data);
			i++;
		}
	}

could be reduced to this:

	for_each_set_bit(bit, indio_dev->active_scan_mask,
			 indio_dev->masklength)
		data->buffer[bit] = (bit ? sensor_data.temp_data :
					   sensor_data.hum_data);

The if/else structure seems like an unnecessary optimization.

Thoughts?
