[ Upstream commit 9c446288d7b31402adb454535cb2c3cbdb55bb88 ] Export iio_dmaengine_buffer_free() and iio_dmaengine_buffer_alloc(). This is in preparation of introducing IIO backends support. This will allow us to allocate a buffer and control it's lifetime from a device different from the one holding the DMA firmware properties. Effectively, in this case the struct device holding the firmware information about the DMA channels is not the same as iio_dev->dev.parent (typical case). While at it, namespace the buffer-dmaengine exports and update the current user of these buffers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
