Subject: iio: adc: at91_adc: Repair broken platform_data support
commit 467a44b0372d8268ce5bd90e58bde7db51c1d476 upstream.
Trying to use the at91_adc driver while not using device tree is ending up in a
kernel crash:
Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000004

[<c022acdc>] (kernel_init) from [<c0009670>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x24)
This is because the at91_adc_caps structure is mandatory but is not filled when
using platform_data. Correct that by using an id_table. It ensues that the
driver will not match "at91_adc" anymore but it was crashing anyway.
