Silly question for you - how does this driver actually bind on a modern
platform? That is - how do we get one of these?

Passing a parent to the underlying iio_trigger_alloc() is a functional change
that needs to be clearly laid out. Do that as a precursor patch where you
can then describe the effects that has. Honestly I can't remember so I'd
like to see some analysis presented before I look at it!
