I don't particularly mind this approach, but an alternative would be to
change the callbacks to take an iio_dev rather than the iio_priv()
structure.  It's more invasive though as need to change what is
provided via dev_get_drvdata for the adc device.
It's possible I missed a path where this won't work for some reason though.

Up to the driver maintainers on which one they prefer.

Thanks,

Jonathan
