Subject: iio: buffer: add ioctl() to support opening extra buffers for IIO
 device

With this change, an ioctl() call is added to open a character device for a
buffer. The ioctl() number is 'i' 0x91, which follows the
IIO_GET_EVENT_FD_IOCTL ioctl.

The ioctl() will return an FD for the requested buffer index. The indexes
are the same from the /sys/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY (i.e. the Y
variable).

Since there doesn't seem to be a sane way to return the FD for buffer0 to
be the same FD for the /dev/iio:deviceX, this ioctl() will return another
FD for buffer0 (or the first buffer). This duplicate FD will be able to
access the same buffer object (for buffer0) as accessing directly the
/dev/iio:deviceX chardev.

Also, there is no IIO_BUFFER_GET_BUFFER_COUNT ioctl() implemented, as the
index for each buffer (and the count) can be deduced from the
'/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY' folders (i.e the number of
bufferY folders).

Used following C code to test this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------

 #include <stdio.h>
 #include <stdlib.h>
 #include <unistd.h>
 #include <sys/ioctl.h>
 #include <fcntl.h"
 #include <errno.h>

 #define IIO_BUFFER_GET_FD_IOCTL      _IOWR('i', 0x91, int)

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
        int fd;
        int fd1;
        int ret;

        if ((fd = open("/dev/iio:device0", O_RDWR))<0) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Error open() %d errno %d\n",fd, errno);
                return -1;
        }

        fprintf(stderr, "Using FD %d\n", fd);

        fd1 = atoi(argv[1]);

        ret = ioctl(fd, IIO_BUFFER_GET_FD_IOCTL, &fd1);
        if (ret < 0) {
                fprintf(stderr, "Error for buffer %d ioctl() %d errno %d\n", fd1, ret, errno);
                close(fd);
                return -1;
        }

        fprintf(stderr, "Got FD %d\n", fd1);

        close(fd1);
        close(fd);

        return 0;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------

Results are:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
 # ./test 0
 Using FD 3
 Got FD 4

 # ./test 1
 Using FD 3
 Got FD 4

 # ./test 2
 Using FD 3
 Got FD 4

 # ./test 3
 Using FD 3
 Got FD 4

 # ls /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0
 buffer  buffer0  buffer1  buffer2  buffer3  dev
 in_voltage_sampling_frequency  in_voltage_scale
 in_voltage_scale_available
 name  of_node  power  scan_elements  subsystem  uevent
-------------------------------------------------------------------

iio:device0 has some fake kfifo buffers attached to an IIO device.
