iio: at91_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.
