It handles the lack of availability of an IIO channel in line 199 by converting an -ENODEV to an -EPROBE_DEFER. Also platform_get_irq() can return -EPROBE_DEFER and the driver isn't currently handling that properly. Both changes are of a more involved nature than the simple conversions you have here though, so perhaps a follow up patch? The parts you here look good to me.
