Lars-Peter Clausen aff1eb4e3d iio: buffer: Fix NULL pointer deref caused by empty scan mask
iio_scan_mask_match() returns NULL if the passed in scan mask is empty. This
will happen if no channel has been selected and buffer is enabled.
iio_sw_buffer_preenable() will assign NULL to indio_dev->active_scan_mask in
this case. As a result iio_update_demux() will cause a NULL pointer deref,
because it expects active_scan_mask to be non-NULL.

Since it does not make much sense to start data capture if there is no data to
capture this patch updates the code to fail gracefully in iio_scan_mask_match()
instead of crashing the kernel.

Replace open-coded instances of getting a iio_dev struct from a device struct
with dev_to_iio_dev().

Jonathan Cameron a980e04609 IIO: Move the core files to drivers/iio
Take the core support + the kfifo buffer implentation out of
staging.  Whilst we are far from done in improving this subsystem
it is now at a stage where the userspae interfaces (provided by
the core) can be considered stable.

Drivers will follow over a longer time scale.
