cc'ing Lars who tends to look after Analog Devices drivers
and more specifically was involved in the thread that lead to this
patch.

Also, the devm_kasprintf does not appear to be in upstream so this
patch should have made an dependency clear.

What is the intended merge path for that patch?

Agreed. I wouldn't do it!

Otherwise, all looks fine.
