Hi Hui Liu

This fix is obviously correct but I think we can improve it a little.

1) Add a bit more detail to the patch description.  Perhaps change it to something like
Previously the driver did not apply the scaling necessary to take the
voltage range of this ADC into account. 

2) If you change to

	*val = *val * VOLTAGE_FULL_RANGE;
	*val2 = 12;
	return IIO_VAL_FRACTIONAL_LOG2;

then you should get a more precise answer.  (Please check that though!)
This might be an issue if you have consumers drivers though that can not
cope with this particular type.  If so please state that in the patch description
and add a comment to the code to say that so we don't end up 'improving' this
in future without taking those consumers into account.

Thanks,

Jonathan
