It's funny because during GSoC it seemed like some people would try to
use this as a starting point, then shift to another working ADC/DAC
example.
I was also thinking about maybe extending this a bit further, to have
it a bit more dynamic at load time [being able to load fake IIO
drivers, load fake data to be read via fake IIO device].
No idea when this will be ready, but it's on my long todo-list.

Yep, there isn't one.
I'll add one through some smoke, magic, some OF and maybe some fake
i2c/spi device IDs.
