[PATCH v3] iio: adc: Correct conditional logic for store mode

Gabriel Shahrouzi
2025-04-14T15:40:53Z

The mode setting logic in ad7816_store_mode was reversed due to
incorrect handling of the strcmp return value. strcmp returns 0 on
match, so the `if (strcmp(buf, "full"))` block executed when the
input was not "full".

This resulted in "full" setting the mode to AD7816_PD (power-down) and
other inputs setting it to AD7816_FULL.

Fix this by checking it against 0 to correctly check for "full" and
"power-down", mapping them to AD7816_FULL and AD7816_PD respectively.

Fixes: 7924425db04a ("staging: iio: adc: new driver for AD7816 devices")
