Hi,
Thanks for the patch.
As Peter already said this patch introduces a lot of custom ABI, none of
which is documented and most of which is probably not acceptable since. The
whole idea of a framework is that you expose the capabilities of a device
through a standard device independent ABI, this allows to write generic
applications and libraries that can manage the devices through this ABI.
This allows to leverage existing developments rather than starting from
scratch each time. If your device uses a complete custom ABI there is not
much point of having a driver in the first place since any application needs
device specific knowledge anyway to talk to the driver, in this case you
could just directly implement the I2C communication in the application.
Please also consider reading and following Documentation/CodingStyle

This is not thread safe. Another thread could interrupt between
i2c_master_send() and i2c_master_recv() and cause undefined behavior. Use
i2c_smbus_read_word_swapped() which makes sure that the I2C communication
happens atomically.

Please use IIO threshold events for this. Such out-of-band communication is
really not acceptable.

Please drop all these dev_info(). That's just noise in the boot log, imagine
every driver did this you wouldn't be able to spot the critical information.

Don't do all the GPIO translation. This pin is only used as a interrupt, so
specify it directly as an interrupt and use it that way as well.

For errors use dev_err. Also the as6200_id[0].name is redundant since
dev_info/dev_err already prefixes the message with the device name.

What exactly is protect by that mutex here?

Please no out-of-band error reporting.

No need to initialize those here with dummy, this will just hide warnings in
case you forgot to initialize them with actual data.

use id->name for this. dev_name() contains things like the I2C bus and
device address, etc. Whereas the IIO device name should describe the type of
device.

Error handling is missing here, you need to free the resources that were
acquired in case of an error.
