3rd set of IIO fixes for the 4.0 cycle.
* A double free occured on an error path in due to an event registration issue.
The fix is the minimal change rather than possibly reworking this area of
the core to give a more elegant solution (future work).
* A number of drivers were directly accessing indio_dev->buffer->scan_mask
to identify the currently enabled channel set. This may not be correct
if we have additional clients on the push interface. The correct option
is indio_dev->active_scan_mask. This is fixed.
* bmc150 had incorrectly specified sampling frequency (a datasheet confusion
as they are specified in terms of bandwith - e.g. half the sampling
frequency).
* hmc5843 wasn't setting it's name and hence the name attribute was
returning an empty string.
* inv_mpu6050 wasn't clearing the locally held timestamp buffer when the
hardware fifo was reset. Also an inconsistency existed in the interface
for the scale of the channels. Magic numbers were written but real ones
were used for the reads. Now uses real numbers (i.e. not array indexes)
for both.
* fix a missing dependency in the dummy driver. Previously shielded from
the autobuilders by an earlier build error.
iio: core: Fix double free.
When an error occurred during event registration memory was freed twice
resulting in kernel memory corruption and a crash in unrelated code.
The problem was caused by
iio_device_unregister_eventset()
iio_device_unregister_sysfs()
being called twice, once on the error path and then
again via iio_dev_release().
Fix this by making these two functions idempotent so they
may be called multiple times.
The problem was observed before applying
