_RAW and _PROCESSED I think?  (scale is something else entirely)

I'm sorry, but I don't understand the question.

I looked back at that earlier discussion and the discussion was about also
adding _RAW.  I think we concluded that, as we already had _PROCESSED and
generally do not support both, we would just continue to have processed.

The suggestion in this review is to use a different choice from the various
ways that IIO can represent values in order to potentially maintain slightly
higher precision.  Whether that actually helps depends a bit of how the
value is being used in your out of tree driver.  If that driver wants
a different scaling (perhaps micro volts rather than millivolts) then,
if I recall correctly slightly higher precision is maintained
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/drivers/iio/inkern.c#L625

If you prefer to keep the code as is, just address the request for a little
more information in the patch description.

Thanks,

Jonathan
