Oh, yes, you're right. I would prefer your later option. Call
__iio_backend_disable() from __iio_backend_disable() with a proper typed
parameter. I also just realized your 'struct device *dev' parameter. I think it
can be removed for these APIs. The only reason for it is for
devm_add_action_or_reset() which we don't need-
