So, this one has a bit of a funny story.
There's an AD7888 which is similar in terms of registers but with more channels.
Lars did a patch to support it on top of AD7887:
    https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/linux/commits/iio-ad7888

We tried to order a part for this to test the changes, but we got a
reply that it's obsolete.
The website says it is still in production.
So, I was confused about the answer we got. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

In the meantime, I thought I'd take some of the cleanup value of Lars'
work and do the cleanup only.
We may still find that part somewhere and maybe add it, or maybe
another one would come along.
I don't know at this point. I'm mostly looking at some of my backlog
stuff and trying to cleanup old stuff.

I'm fine to simplify the driver now and add the matching bits later.
