[PATCH v2] iio: fix kernel-doc warnings in industrialio-backend.c

[KRIISHSHARMA]

From: Kriish Sharma <kriish.sharma2006@gmail.com>

Fix multiple kernel-doc warnings in drivers/iio/industrialio-backend.c,
including a missing description for the @chan parameter in
iio_backend_oversampling_ratio_set() and a missing return value
description in iio_backend_get_priv().

This addresses the warnings reported by kernel-doc and the kernel test
robot.

Reported-by: kernel test robot <lkp@intel.com>
Closes: https://lore.kernel.org/oe-kbuild-all/202506292344.HLJbrrgR-lkp@intel.com

v2:
- Fixed another kernel-doc warning.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251025102008.253566-1-kriish.sharma2006@gmail.com

Subject should be rather

iio: backend: fix kernel-doc to avoid warnings

But no need to resend, until Jonathan requests this. I hope he can massage
the commit message whilst applying.

I guess it would not hurt to change this to RETURNS: to match the
rest of the file either.

Good catch! KRIISHSHARMA, please check the whole file for this as it's not a
direct mistake from kernel-doc perspective, there is a mistake from consistency
point of view and hence needs to be addressed.

Hi Andy, David,

Thank you both for the reviews and helpful suggestions!
I've sent v3 now, which includes the consistency fixes (changing
Return: to RETURNS: across the file) and the other points you
mentioned.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251028093326.1087660-1-kriish.sharma2006@gmail.com/

Appreciate your time and feedback.

Best regards,
Kriish
