Might be useful in some cases, but I don't see its value. Just always provide
a chip_info and no need to care about this. Esp. this just shows that it's
mandatory, but if absent, it will crash on the following line. Since it's about
probe, one will notice it immediately, otherwise it will mean a submission of
the code that has never been tested.

TL;DR: just drop this check.
+	indio_dev->channels = st->chip->channel_spec;
