Copied from clock code, and used throughout documentation here or there.
Not my style, really, and I'll likely forget to do it if/when I add text myself,
so I'll change it.

It does - of_iio_channel_get_all() returns all channels even if there are no names.

that would leave chan->data uninitialized, and I would have to initialize it
explicitly. also, if additional fields are ever added, we would risk having
uninitialized fields. Using kzalloc avoids a potential future error case, so I
would prefer to keep it.

Done; introduced __of_iio_get_channel to be called by both functions.

Yes, you are right. I'll try, and also write some test code to actually test it
to make sure that it works as intended.
