I tried faking it, but it needs a rework of the
drivers/iio/industrialio-sw-device.c logic.
The whole IIO dummy driver is an IIO SW device, so maybe the sanest
thing, is to create platform devices or just parent devices in there,
and pass the parent to the IIO device.
I tried making the IIO dummy a standalone platform driver, but then
you end up having to probe() paths, 1 via platform_driver and one via
iio-sw-device.
