Subject: iio: accel: bma180: Fix indio_dev->trig assignment

commit 0668a4e4d297328ce08b44d91d160537596115e2 upstream.

This can result in wrong reference count for trigger device, call
iio_trigger_get to increment reference.
Refer to http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-iio/msg13669.html for discussion
with Jonathan.
