iio: at91-sama5d2_adc: remove usage of iio_priv_to_dev() helper
We may want to get rid of the iio_priv_to_dev() helper. The reason is that we will hide some of the members of the iio_dev structure (to prevent drivers from accessing them directly), and that will also mean hiding the implementation of the iio_priv_to_dev() helper inside the IIO core. Hiding the implementation of iio_priv_to_dev() implies that some fast-paths may not be fast anymore, so a general idea is to try to get rid of the iio_priv_to_dev() altogether. The iio_priv() helper won't be affected by the rework, as the iio_dev struct will keep a reference to the private information. For this driver, not using iio_priv_to_dev(), means reworking some paths to pass the iio device and using iio_priv() to access the private information, and also keeping a reference to the iio device for some quirky paths. One [quirky] path is the at91_adc_workq_handler() which requires the IIO device & the state struct to push to buffers. Since this requires the back-ref to the IIO device, the at91_adc_touch_pos() also uses it. This simplifies the patch a bit. The information required in this function is mostly for debugging purposes. Replacing it with a reference to the IIO device would have been a slightly bigger change, which may not be worth it (for just the debugging purpose and given that we need the back-ref to the IIO device anyway).
