Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 1 potential issue(s) to consider:

Pre-existing issues:
- [High] Blindly reading 32 or 64 bits from `raw_data` without verifying `raw_len` can lead to slab-out-of-bounds reads.

iio: magnetometer: hid-sensor-magn-3d: align parenthesis for readability

This commit adjusts the alignment of parentheses across multiple functions in
the hid-sensor-magn-3d driver. This improves readability and maintains
consistency with the kernel coding style.

[Severity: High]
This is a pre-existing issue, but since this patch touches the signature of
magn_3d_capture_sample(), could we be at risk of a slab out-of-bounds read
further down in the function?

If a device presents a crafted HID report descriptor that defines the
HID_USAGE_SENSOR_TIME_TIMESTAMP field with a smaller size, it could result in
raw_len being less than 8.  Reading 8 bytes from raw_data in this case:

	case HID_USAGE_SENSOR_TIME_TIMESTAMP:
		magn_state->timestamp =
			hid_sensor_convert_timestamp(&magn_state->magn_flux_attributes,
						     *(s64 *)raw_data);

would read past the end of the buffer.

A similar dereference happens later in the function for the magnetic axes
where 4 bytes are read:

	iio_val = magn_state->magn_val_addr[offset];

	if (iio_val != NULL)
		*iio_val = *((u32 *)raw_data);

Could this also trigger an out-of-bounds read if raw_len is smaller than 4?
Should we verify the size of raw_len before making these casts?
