Can you use regmap-irq?  If not can we fix things so that's possible?

Why a delayed work?  That's *very* unusual.

Given that you're using irq domains why does the device need platform
data?

This shouldn't be needed with irq domains.

You're reexporting regmap functionality with looser licensing
requirements...

For new drivers the ADC should probably be integrated into IIO.

Since you're using an irq domains you shouldn't need an irq base
specifying in order to use interrupts.

I'd expect that's going to give some false negatives...
