	indio_dev = devm_iio_device_alloc(dev, sizeof(*adc_priv));

It fit on one line under 80 chars even before the change but it is even
shorter now so let us tidy this up whilst we are here.

This is creating churn we don't need.

Generally I'd suggest only applying the newly available dev where you
aren't going to refactor the line later in the series.  Then just
add a note there to say that alongside using dev_err_probe() you are taking
advantage of the now available dev local variable.

Similar on this one.

And here.

you probably get the idea by this point!
