For testing purposes is nice to have a quick way of creating IIO devices. This patch series introduces support for creating IIO devices via configs (patch 1), allowing users to register "device types". For the moment we support "dummy" device type (patch 2). Patch 3 introduces configfs entries documentation for easier review. Changes since v1: * dropped the RFC tag * fix coding style issues as per Jonathan suggestion * fix configfs path in Documentation as per Lars observation (patch 3) * allocate memory for indio_dev->name (patch 1) * make iio_simple_dummy depend on SW_DEVICE config option in order to avoid compilation errors reported by kbuild robot.
