[ Upstream commit2d3dff577d] The iio_generic_buffer can return garbage values when the total size of scan data is not a multiple of the largest element in the scan. This can be demonstrated by reading a scan, consisting, for example of one 4-byte and one 2-byte element, where the 4-byte element is first in the buffer. The IIO generic buffer code does not take into account the last two padding bytes that are needed to ensure that the 4-byte data for next scan is correctly aligned. Add the padding bytes required to align the next sample with the scan size. Signed-off-by: Matti Vaittinen <mazziesaccount@gmail.com> Fixes:e58537ccce("staging: iio: update example application.")

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
