Okay, and what happens here is something like cutting LSBs, but it
sounds strange to me. If you get 16 bit values, the MSBs should not be
used?

So, a good comment is required to explain the logic behind.

It's still N - 1 unneeded checks and code is slightly harder to read.

It's fine here.

Hmm... What I don't understand here is why you need a second level of
atomicity. spin lock already makes this access atomic (at least I have
checked couple of places and in both the variable is being accessed
under spin lock).

I didn't get it.
You allocate memory and haven't checked against NULL. Why?

If the name field is optional and having it's NULL is okay (non-fatal
error), put a comment.

I believe it's this one:

commit 970108185a0be29d1dbb25202d8c12d798e1c3a5
Author: Gwendal Grignou <gwendal@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date:   Tue Mar 9 11:36:13 2021 -0800

   iio: set default trig->dev.parent
