[PATCH 00/13] iio: adc: use dev_err_probe in probe paths

[PATCH 00/13] iio: adc: use dev_err_probe in probe paths

[Antoniu Miclaus]

This series converts dev_err() calls to dev_err_probe() in the probe
paths of various IIO ADC drivers. This ensures proper handling of
deferred probing and simplifies error handling.

Where needed, a local struct device pointer is introduced first to
reduce repeated &spi->dev dereferences throughout the probe function.

Drivers addressed:
  - ad7949, ad7780, ad7793, ad7292, ad7791, ad7280a, ad7768-1,
    ad9467, ad4062

There are quite a few instances of this dereference nest.
Unless other things come up in this set I don't mind it being dealt
with separately but to me it seems like a helper to make this
		ret = dev_err_probe(adi_sigma_delta_get_dev(&st->sd), -ENODEV,
might be nice?  Longer line but avoids diving into the implementation details
in a driver that shouldn't really be doing that.

[PATCH 09/13] iio: adc: ad7791: use dev_err_probe

[Antoniu Miclaus]

Use dev_err_probe() instead of dev_err() in the probe path to ensure
proper handling of deferred probing and to simplify error handling.
