[PATCH v3 0/5] iio: adc: ad7380: add alert support

[Julien Stephan <jstephan@baylibre.com>]

Hello,

The ad738x family includes a built-in alert mechanism for early
detection of out-of-bounds conversion results. This series introduces
this functionality to the ad7380 family.

This is the first non RFC version of the series (RFC available at [1] and [2]).

Given the fact that the main use case is to hardwire the interrupt line
and according to discussions in V2 about interrupts, I think the best is
to not generate events, at least while we don't have a reasonable way to
correctly and efficiently handle interrupts.

Events attributes are still populated to allow user to set a threshold
and enable alert detection, so alert pin can be hardwired.

Userspace event can still be added later if needed.
