For generic IIO trigger implementations we already have a sub-directory,
but the generic buffer implementations currently reside in the IIO
top-level directory. The main reason is that things have historically grown
into this form.
With more generic buffer implementations on its way now is the perfect time
to clean this up and introduce a sub-directory for generic buffer
implementations to avoid too much clutter in the top-level directory.

This patch renames the top half handler and the bottom half handler
of iio_triggered_buffer_setup() in accordance with their usage.
The bottom half has been renamed to reflect the fact that it is a
thread based call, compliant with iio_alloc_pollfunc().
The names of the parameters were swapped, thus creating confusion.

indio_dev was unused in function body plus some small style fix - add new
lines after "if(sth) return sth" and before the last return statement.
The argument was removed also in its client.

Originally device and buffer registration were kept as separate operations
in IIO to allow to register two distinct sets of channels for buffered and
non-buffered operations. This has since already been further restricted and
the channel set registered for the buffer needs to be a subset of the
channel set registered for the device. Additionally the possibility to not
have a raw (or processed) attribute for a channel which was registered for
the device was added a while ago. This means it is possible to not register
any device level attributes for a channel even if it is registered for the
device. Also if a channel's scan_index is set to -1 and the channel is
registered for the buffer it is ignored.
So in summary it means it is possible to register the same channel array for
both the device and the buffer yet still end up with distinctive sets of
channels for both of them. This makes the argument for having to have to
manually register the channels for both the device and the buffer invalid.
Considering that the vast majority of all drivers want to register the same
set of channels for both the buffer and the device it makes sense to move
the buffer registration into the core to avoid some boiler-plate code in the
device driver setup path.

The equivalent of iio_sw_buffer_preenable() is now done in the IIO buffer core,
so there is no need to do this from the driver anymore.

Since the buffer is accessed by userspace we can not just free the buffers
memory once we are done with it in kernel space. There might still be open file
descriptors and userspace still might be accessing the buffer. This patch adds
support for reference counting to the IIO buffers. When a buffer is created and
initialized its initial reference count is set to 1. Instead of freeing the
memory of the buffer the buffer's _free() function will drop that reference
again. But only after the last reference to the buffer has been dropped the
buffer the buffer's memory will be freed. The IIO device will take a reference
to its primary buffer. The patch adds a small helper function for this called
iio_device_attach_buffer() which will get a reference to the buffer and assign
the buffer to the IIO device. This function must be used instead of assigning
the buffer to the device by hand. The reference is only dropped once the IIO
device is freed and we can be sure that there are no more open file handles. A
reference to a buffer will also be taken whenever the buffer is active to avoid
the buffer being freed while data is still being send to it.

Add a helper function for executing the common tasks which are usually involved
in setting up a simple software ringbuffer. It will allocate the buffer,
allocate the pollfunc and register the buffer.
