Subject[PATCH v2] iio: core: register chardev only if needed
Date
The final intent is to localize all buffer ops into the
industrialio-buffer.c file, to be able to add support for multiple buffers
per IIO device.

We only need a chardev if we need to support buffers and/or events.

With this change, a chardev will be created:
1. if there is an IIO buffer attached OR
2. if there is an event_interface configured

Otherwise, no chardev will be created.
Quite a lot of IIO devices don't really need a chardev, so this is a minor
improvement to the IIO core, as the IIO device will take up fewer
resources.

Changelog v1 -> v2:
* split away from series 'iio: core,buffer: re-organize chardev creation';
i'm getting the feeling that this has some value on it's own;
no idea if it needs 'Fixes' tag; it is a bit fuzzy to point to a patch
which this would be fixed by this; i'm guessing it would be fine
without one
