The iio-core extends the attr_group provided by the driver with its own attributes. To be able to do this it: 1. Has its own (non const) io_dev_opaque.chan_attr_group attr_group struct 2. It allocates a new attrs array with room for both the drivers and its own attributes 3. It copies over the driver provided attributes into the newly allocated attrs array. But the drivers attr_group may contain more then just the attrs array, it may also contain an is_visible callback and at least the adi-axi-adc.c is currently defining such a callback. Change the attr_group copying code to also copy over the is_visible callback, so that drivers can define one and have it workins as is normal for attr_group-s all over the kernel. Note that the is_visible callback takes an index into the array as argument, so that indices of the driver's attributes must not change, this is not a problem as the driver's own attributes are added first to the newly allocated attrs array and the attributes handled by the core are appended after the driver's attributes.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
