commit 89deb1334252ea4a8491d47654811e28b0790364 upstream
One of a class of bugs pointed out by Lars in a recent review. iio_push_to_buffers_with_timestamp() assumes the buffer used is aligned to the size of the timestamp (8 bytes). This is not guaranteed in this driver which uses an array of smaller elements on the stack. As Lars also noted this anti pattern can involve a leak of data to userspace and that indeed can happen here. We close both issues by moving to a suitable structure in the iio_priv() data. This data is allocated with kzalloc() so no data can leak apart from previous readings.
The explicit alignment of ts is not necessary in this case but does make the code slightly less fragile so I have included it.
