The buffer-dma code was using two queues, incoming and outgoing, to manage the state of the blocks in use. While this totally works, it adds some complexity to the code, especially since the code only manages 2 blocks. It is much easier to just check each block's state manually, and keep a counter for the next block to dequeue. Since the new DMABUF based API wouldn't use the outgoing queue anyway, getting rid of it now makes the upcoming changes simpler. With this change, the IIO_BLOCK_STATE_DEQUEUED is now useless, and can be removed.

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.
