It's seconds in the ABI docs.  Thankfully time to fix the
driver.  No huge rush as long as we do it in time to slip in before
release.

In the early days of IIO we got most of our scaling from hwmon.
It became clear after a while that those weren't appropriate because
they tended to not have enough precision.  Hence things shifted (with
a few exceptions) to the SI unit without mili etc. I think the time
related ones all came after that change of approach.

Thanks,

Jonathan
