iio: hid-sensors: remove unused iio_dev argument

hid_sensor_remove_trigger() no longer uses the iio_dev argument. Remove the
unused argument from all HID IIO drivers to match updated function prototype.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does the concurrent execution
of sensor_hub_raw_event() and this remove() function cause a use-after-free
on the IIO device state?

Looking at sensor_hub_remove_callback() in drivers/hid/hid-sensor-hub.c, it
removes the callback using dyn_callback_lock but does not synchronize with
pdata->lock:

drivers/hid/hid-sensor-hub.c:sensor_hub_remove_callback() {
    spin_lock_irqsave(&pdata->dyn_callback_lock, flags);
    // list removal
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(&pdata->dyn_callback_lock, flags);
}

If an unbind happens concurrently with an incoming hardware event:

CPU1
sensor_hub_raw_event()
    acquires pdata->lock
    finds registered callback

CPU2
hid_accel_3d_remove()
    sensor_hub_remove_callback()
        removes callback and returns
    devres framework frees the IIO device state

CPU1
sensor_hub_raw_event()
    if (callback->capture_sample) {
        callback->capture_sample(...) // Dereferences freed IIO state

Can this lead to memory corruption during physical device removal or sysfs
unbind?
