Buffer support within IIO

This document is intended as a general overview of the functionality
a buffer may supply and how it is specified within IIO.  For more
specific information on a given buffer implementation, see the
comments in the source code.  Note that some drivers allow buffer
implementation to be selected at compile time via Kconfig options.

A given buffer implementation typically embeds a struct
iio_ring_buffer and it is a pointer to this that is provided to the
IIO core. Access to the embedding structure is typically done via
container_of functions.

struct iio_ring_buffer contains a struct iio_ring_setup_ops *setup_ops
which in turn contains the 4 function pointers
(preenable, postenable, predisable and postdisable).
These are used to perform device specific steps on either side
of the core changing it's current mode to indicate that the buffer
is enabled or disabled (along with enabling triggering etc as appropriate).

Also in struct iio_ring_buffer is a struct iio_ring_access_funcs.
The function pointers within here are used to allow the core to handle
as much buffer functionality as possible. Note almost all of these
are optional.

mark_in_use, unmark_in_use
  Basically indicate that not changes should be made to the buffer state that
  will effect the form of the data being captures (e.g. scan elements or length)

store_to
  If possible, push data to the buffer.

read_last
  If possible, get the most recent scan from the buffer (without removal).
  This provides polling like functionality whilst the ring buffering is in
  use without a separate read from the device.

rip_first_n
  The primary buffer reading function. Note that it may well not return
  as much data as requested.

mark_param_changed
  Used to indicate that something has changed. Used in conjunction with
request_update
  If parameters have changed that require reinitialization or configuration of
  the buffer this will trigger it.

get_bytes_per_datum, set_bytes_per_datum
  Get/set the number of bytes for a complete scan. (All samples + timestamp)

get_length / set_length
  Get/set the number of complete scans that may be held by the buffer.

is_enabled
  Query if ring buffer is in use
enable
  Start the ring buffer.
