I'm sorry, I misunderstood our previous discussing on this topic (https://marc.info/?l=linux-iio&m=152087432322446&w=2) as saying: "there already exists another channel type that is a good enough match". The in_incli and in_rot_from_* family all use degrees as their unit. For V2 I'll change it back to an angle channel and use angle as its unit.
