Subject: [PATCH v5 3/6] iio: core: register chardev only if needed

Precedence: bulk

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 only if an IIO buffer is
attached OR an event_interface is configured.

Otherwise, no chardev will be created, and the IIO device will get
registered with the 'device_add()' call.

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 (slightly)
fewer resources.
