This assignment is the more peculiar as it assigns the parent of the platform-device's device (i.e. pdev->dev.parent) as the IIO device's parent. Since the devm_iio_device_alloc() [now] assigns the device argument as the default parent (and since this is the more common case), for cases where the parent needs to be different, the iio_device_set_parent helper should be used. That makes things a bit more obvious about the new behavior of devm_iio_device_alloc() and makes it clearer that iio_device_set_parent() should be used.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
