Commit Message

Since the new change to the IIO buffer infrastructure, the buffer/ and
scan_elements/ directories have been merged into bufferY/ to have some
attributes available per-buffer.

This change updates the ABI docs to reflect this change.

The hwfifo attributes are not updated, as for now these should be used
via the legacy buffer/ directory until they are moved into core.

This doesn't really have anything to do with the rest of the set - so ideally
you'd have sent it separately.

One trivial typo below, that I can fix whilst applying.

bufferY

I'll fix whilst applying.

The ABI parser doesn't like things like this:

	$ ./scripts/get_abi.pl validate

	Warning: file Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-iio#1167:
		What '/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/length' doesn't have a description

The main reason is that all properties, including KernelVersion, 
Contact and Description are associated to a group of properties.

To be frank, for me that don't work with IIO, the above ABI
description doesn't sound clear.

I mean, what's the difference between
	/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/length
and
	/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY/length?


If the intention is to tell that:
	/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/buffer/length
was obsoleted by:
	/sys/bus/iio/devices/iio:deviceX/bufferY/length

IMO, the right thing would be to move the deprecated definition to
	Documentation/ABI/obsolete/

If, on the other hand, both are completely identical and 
non-obsoleted, why to have both APIs? 

Or did you just missed adding a different description for the
new ABI symbols, but this was dropped due to some merge
conflict?

Thanks,
Mauro

You are right that the version with out the index is obsolete
but it's only just become so and there are no realistic way we
are going to ever be able to remove it however much we encourage
userspace to use the new interface.  We are stuck with this bit
of backwards compatibility indefinitely.

I'm fine with moving it and related definitions over to
ABI/obsolete if that makes sense.
