I think that will lead to ABI breakage(client->name vs id->name)

	match = device_get_match_data(&client->dev);
	if (match) {
		chip_type = (uintptr_t)match;
		name = client->name;
	} else if (id) {
		chip_type = (enum inv_devices)
			id->driver_data;
		name = id->name;
	} else {
		return -ENOSYS;
	}

That is sample code for iterating through id table to find max enum
and check against ZERO_OR_NULL_PTR

I need to explore using coccinelle script as I have n't tried before.
