iio_channel_get_all returns -ENODEV when it cannot find either phandles and
properties in the Device Tree or channels whose consumer_dev_name matches
iio_hwmon in iio_map_list. The iio_map_list is filled in by iio drivers
which might be probed after iio_hwmon.

It is better to defer the probe of iio_hwmon if such error is returned by
iio_channel_get_all in order to let a chance to iio drivers to expose
channels in iio_map_list.
