v2:
 https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231208-dev-iio-backend-v2-0-5450951895e1@xxxxxxxxxx

v3:
 https://lore.kernel.org/linux-iio/20231213-dev-iio-backend-v3-0-bb9f12a5c6dc@xxxxxxxxxx/

v4:
 https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231220-iio-backend-v4-0-998e9148b692@xxxxxxxxxx

Changes in v5:
 - Patch 2
  * Update commit subject and message;
  * Add '#io-backends-cells' property.
 - Patch 4
  * Also support '#io-backends-cells'.
 - Patch 6
  * Improve Kconfig help message;
  * Only use device_links to control backends access. With this, we can remove
    all the mutex + sync logic as we are now guaranteed that a frontend cannot
    be up and running if one of the backends is gone.
  * Error out if we can't create the device_link (so we can guarantee the above).
  * Improve docs for __devm_iio_backend_get_from_fwnode_lookup();
  * Add a __ prefix to devm_iio_backend_get_from_fwnode_lookup() so it's clear
    that API should not be used (or used with care);
  * Drop devm_iio_backend_get_optional();
  * remove unneeded headers.
 - Patch 7
  * Handle the optional backend in the driver.

The biggest difference is that the backend @ops pointer handling to
reason about the backend existence is gone. Now, we rely on device_links
as that makes sure all consumers (in the link) are unbound before the
provider. Hence, the frontend is guaranteed to be unbound if any of the
backends is gone. That simplifies things a lot...

Keeping the block diagram  so we don't have to follow links
to check one of the typical setups.
