I suppose the reason why i2c_set_clientdata() is called in probe() is
because max9286_init() uses i2c_get_clientdata() to get priv. But, that
would be easily fixed if we change the function declaration to

static int max9286_init(struct max9286_priv *priv)

>From priv we can get both client and dev, which are used inside the
function.

I'll send a v2 shortly.
