Subject: [PATCH v2 3/5] iio:accel:mxc4005: rearrange iio trigger get and
 register

IIO trigger interface function iio_trigger_get() should be called after
iio_trigger_register() (or its devm analogue) strictly, because of
iio_trigger_get() acquires module refcnt based on the trigger->owner
pointer, which is initialized inside iio_trigger_register() to
THIS_MODULE.
If this call order is wrong, the next iio_trigger_put() (from sysfs
callback or "delete module" path) will dereference "default" module
refcnt, which is incorrect behaviour.

Fixes: 47196620c82f ("iio: mxc4005: add data ready trigger for mxc4005")
