Drivers should not 'select' a subsystem. Instead they should depend
on it. If the subsystem is disabled, the user probably did that for
a purpose and one driver shouldn't be changing that.

This also makes all IIO drivers consistent w.r.t depending on SYSFS
instead of selecting it.

Applied to the togreg branch of iio.git and pushed out as testing for
the autobuilders to play with it.

Whilst thinking on the autobuilders, I'd love to relax the constraint
that this depends on the at91 subarch and at least allow build testing.
Will greatly improve our test coverage.

Maxime, I ran a quick test and it's fine on x86_64 anyway.  Do you know of
any reason we will get build problems on other platforms?

Thanks,

Jonathan
