I'd also add the datasheet link here.

Make "o" in "One" uppercase to maintain consistency with your other comments.

Why I_V and not IV?

Is "iv" intentionally being written even in error path? Ideally it would be 
assigned after the check.

Just use for(unsigned int i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(max40080_oversampling_avail); i++);
No need to have a separate declaration of 'i' for "for"

I'd use scope here as it's technically multiline. "for(...) { }"

Separate initialization from declaration.

int ret, filter;

filter = max40080_oversampling_to_filter(val);

Put "int *val, int *val2, long mask" on the same line. i.e,
static int max40080_read_raw(struct iio_dev *indio_dev,
			     struct iio_chan_spec const *chan,
			     int *val, int *val2, long mask)

Either have this space before return on all of the paths in this "switch" 
or none of them for consistency.

I'd add brackets to this "for" too like above.

I'd have a blank line before the "ret" assignments.
