We have the same code to free a IIO device attribute list in multiple place.
This patch adds a new helper function to take care of this and replaces the
custom instances with a call to the helper function. Note that we do not need to
call list_del() for each of the list items since we will never look at any of
the list items nor the list itself again.

We need to make sure that in-kernel users of iio_update_buffers() do not race
against each other or against unregistration of the device. So we need to take
both the mlock and the info_exist_lock when calling iio_update_buffers() from a
in-kernel consumer.

Since the buffer is accessed by userspace we can not just free the buffers
memory once we are done with it in kernel space. There might still be open file
descriptors and userspace still might be accessing the buffer. This patch adds
support for reference counting to the IIO buffers. When a buffer is created and
initialized its initial reference count is set to 1. Instead of freeing the
memory of the buffer the buffer's _free() function will drop that reference
again. But only after the last reference to the buffer has been dropped the
buffer the buffer's memory will be freed. The IIO device will take a reference
to its primary buffer. The patch adds a small helper function for this called
iio_device_attach_buffer() which will get a reference to the buffer and assign
the buffer to the IIO device. This function must be used instead of assigning
the buffer to the device by hand. The reference is only dropped once the IIO
device is freed and we can be sure that there are no more open file handles. A
reference to a buffer will also be taken whenever the buffer is active to avoid
the buffer being freed while data is still being send to it.

Change the type of the 'data' parameter for iio_push_to_buffers() from 'u8 *' to
'const void *'. Drivers typically use the correct type (e.g. __be16 *) for their
data buffer. When passing the buffer to iio_push_to_buffers() it needs to be
cast to 'u8 *' for the compiler to not complain (and also having to add __force
if we want to keep sparse happy as well). Since the buffer implementation should
not care about the data layout (except the size of one sample) using a void
pointer is the correct thing to do. Also make it const as the buffer
implementations are not supposed to modify it.

This is useful for cases where the number of valid scan masks grows
exponentially, but it is rather easy to check whether a mask is valid or not
programmatically.
An example of such a case is a device with multiple ADCs where each ADC has a
upstream MUX, which allows to select from a number of physical channels.
+-------+ +-------+
| | | | --- Channel 1
| ADC 1 |---| MUX 1 | --- ...
| | | | --- Channel M
+-------+ +-------+
. . .
. . .
. . .
+-------+ +-------+
| | | | --- Channel M * N + 1
| ADC N |---| MUX N | --- ...
| | | | --- Channel M * N + M
+-------+ +-------+
The number of necessary scan masks for this case is (M+1)**N - 1, on the other
hand it is easy to check whether subsets for each ADC of the scanmask have only
one bit set.

iio_scan_mask_match() returns NULL if the passed in scan mask is empty. This
will happen if no channel has been selected and buffer is enabled.
iio_sw_buffer_preenable() will assign NULL to indio_dev->active_scan_mask in
this case. As a result iio_update_demux() will cause a NULL pointer deref,
because it expects active_scan_mask to be non-NULL.
Since it does not make much sense to start data capture if there is no data to
capture this patch updates the code to fail gracefully in iio_scan_mask_match()
instead of crashing the kernel.
