[PATCH 5.15.y] iio: adc: ad7923: Fix buffer overflow for tx_buf and ring_xfer

From: Nuno Sa <nuno.sa@analog.com>

[ Upstream commit 3a4187ec454e19903fd15f6e1825a4b84e59a4cd ]

The AD7923 was updated to support devices with 8 channels, but the size
of tx_buf and ring_xfer was not increased accordingly, leading to a
potential buffer overflow in ad7923_update_scan_mode().

Fixes: 851644a60d20 ("iio: adc: ad7923: Add support for the ad7908/ad7918/ad7928")
