Yeah, the burst message is a special spi transfer that brings you all of the
channels data at once but for the accel/gyro you need to explicitly configure
the chip to either give you the "normal vs "delta" readings. Re-configuring the
chip and then do another burst would destroy performance I think. We could do
the manual readings as we do in adis16475 for chips not supporting burst32. But
in the burst32 case those manual readings should be minimal while in here we
could have to do 6 of them which could also be very time consuming...

Now, why we don't use available_scan_masks is something I can't really remember
but this implementation goes in line with what we have in the adis16475 driver.
