For some embedded systems, a workflow involving external kernel modules
that implement IIO devices is more practical than working with in-tree
sources. However, there are number of features in the IIO KConfig that can
only be switched on by enabling a particular sensor.

This came as a request a few years back:
   https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/linux/issues/140

This patch implements that request.

After a quick run-through the iio Kconfig files, 4 seem to be useful to add
titles to.
i.e. IIO_TRIGGERED_EVENT, IIO_TRIGGERED_BUFFER, IIO_BUFFER_DMAENGINE &
IIO_BUFFER_DMA.

It's possible that for some out-of-tree drivers this could be useful.

  iio: dma-buffer: Kconfig: Provide titles for IIO DMA Kconfig symbols
  iio: Kconfig: Provide title for IIO_TRIGGERED_EVENT symbol
  iio: buffer: Kconfig: add title for IIO_TRIGGERED_BUFFER symbol

I'm not particular keen on changes to support out of tree stuff, but
these are so trivial there is effectively 0 cost to doing it

Hence, series applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out
as testing for the autobuilders to find out if I'm wrong :)

Thanks,

Jonathan
