I assume you mean #ifdef around the of_device_id + module table macro?

Yes.

 I don't see why. The fact that the driver can work when probed from
 platform code

Ha-ha, tell me how. I would like to be very surprised.

iio_map_array_register(),
pinctrl_register_mappings(),
platform_add_devices(),

you're welcome.

 doesn't mean that it shouldn't have a table to probe
 from devicetree.

I didn't get what you are talking about here. The idea of _unified_
device property API is to get rid of OF-centric code in favour of more
generic approach. Mixing those two can be done only in specific cases
(here is not the one).

And how are we mixing those two here? The only OF-centric thing here is the device table, which is required if we want the driver to probe from devicetree.
