With this change, calling iio_device_attach_buffer() will actually attach
more buffers.
Right now this doesn't do any validation of whether a buffer is attached
twice; maybe that can be added later (if needed). Attaching a buffer more
than once should yield noticeably bad results.

The first buffer is the legacy buffer, so a reference is kept to it.

At this point, accessing the data for the extra buffers (that are added
after the first one) isn't possible yet.

The iio_device_attach_buffer() is also changed to return an error code,
which for now is -ENOMEM if the array could not be realloc-ed for more
buffers.

This is called from a bunch of places, so we need to add error handling
for those which isn't currently present.

Now arguably it is unlikely to fail, so I'm not that bothered about seeing
them all in place as part of this series, but I would like the handling
to have been posted at least.

Otherwise, a few passing comments in here, but nothing to actually change.

Perhaps we should do a follow up adjusting names to slightly better
reflect they are not handling multiple buffers.

Hmm. This does feel like it's in slightly the wrong place, but
I'm not sure where it actually should be.

Given this is the last element in the call sequence I guess it doesn't
makes sense to bring in another function just to tidy up this connection.

I know what you're referring to.
I have a slightly better approach before updating this.
I was going to send it a little later.
I wanted to send it earlier, but I wanted to avoid overlapping myself
with too many patches.
Let me send something now [since it is ready].

So, coming back here.
See series [1]:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20210214143313.67202-1-alexandru.ardelean@analog.com/T/#t

I could probably re-spin this series on top of series [1].
That would make things cleaner in terms of handling
iio_device_attach_buffer() in just 2 places I think.
