BMI160 driver 1 ms delay before each register read

[arurke]

In the BMI160 driver, there is a 1 ms delay before each register read, see https://github.com/BoschSensortec/BMI160_driver/blob/master/bmi160.c#L1369 . I cannot find the rationale for this in the datasheet. It significantly reduces the performance of the driver, and myself and other users at github have tested without the delay and have not yet experienced any problems. Is it safe to remove?

A delay is only needed in suspend or low power mode for register writes.

Hi,

This will be removed in the upcoming release.

Great, thanks for the feedback! Are you able to say something on the timeframe of the next release? (If it's around the corner I won't bother with forking it and fixing myself for the time being)

It should be out in a week.
