Subject: iio: imu: st_lsm6dsx: Update enable mask when using sensor fusion
The enable_mask struct member keeps track of which sensors are enabled in the IMU. When enabling and disabling the sensor fusion functionality, the driver does not properly update this struct member. This prevents a correct calculation of the number of samples that should be read from the hardware FIFO; as a result, reads from the FIFO can be unnecessarily split into multiple transactions, some of which can read past the FIFO length.
