With below patch to use iio_trigger_get, looks like try_release_module_ref() will return 1
and cause try_stop_module() return fail and we will see " rmmod: can't unload 'mma8452': Resource temporarily unavailable ",

As the module ref count check is before iio_device_unregister_trigger_consumer() is called which
will do iio_trigger_put(), so looks like there is still something wrong with the module ref count?
