This change adds a parameter to the {devm_}iio_triggered_buffer_setup()
functions to assign the extra sysfs buffer attributes that are typically
assigned via iio_buffer_set_attrs().
The functions also get renamed to iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext() &
devm_iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext().
For backwards compatibility the old {devm_}iio_triggered_buffer_setup()
functions are now macros wrap the new (renamed) functions with NULL for the
buffer attrs.
The aim is to remove iio_buffer_set_attrs(), so in the
iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext() function the attributes are assigned
directly to 'buffer->attrs'.
When adding multiple IIO buffers per IIO device, it can be pretty
cumbersome to first allocate a set of buffers, then to dig them out of IIO
to assign extra attributes (with iio_buffer_set_attrs()).
Naturally, the best way would be to provide them at allocation time, which
is what this change does.
At this moment, buffers allocated with {devm_}iio_triggered_buffer_setup()
are the only ones in mainline IIO to call iio_buffer_set_attrs().

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.
