Use devm_iio_device_register() to avoid remove function and 
drop explicit call to iio_device_unregister().

In this case you can also remove the line with
     i2c_set_clientdata(client, indio_dev);

A lot of times, when functions like i2c_get_clientdata() get removed,
the i2c_set_clientdata() function becomes useless.
i.e. it stores some data that will never be used in the lifetime of the driver.

It isn't always the case that you can do that; so, some care must be
taken to avoid special cases.
But in this case, you can remove the i2c_set_clientdata() call.

Ack, I'll send that in a while. I should send with [V2] tag right.
