Naveen,

Thanks for sending this. Given that Jonathan Cameron was involved in
the previous discussion, it probably would have been wise to include
him on the CC list.
In my case, don't worry too much as I have linux-iio coming into exactly
the same place in my inbox. Doug is correct that it is generally a good
idea unless someone has asked you not to.

Using pdev->dev with device_for_each_child() would iterate over all
of the children of the platform device and delete them.
Thus, causing crashes during module unload.

We should be using the indio_dev->dev structure for
registering/unregistering child nodes.
