Not sure if the above example belongs to the commit message. I would just write a
small doc if you really want to document the above. We're now seeing more docs for
IIO drivers.

No need for the new line.

Slight preference for sizeof(*info)

Just use "mcf54415".

I would just return devm_iio_device_register();
