iio: Add a helper to free a list of IIO device attributes
We have the same code to free a IIO device attribute list in multiple place.
This patch adds a new helper function to take care of this and replaces the
custom instances with a call to the helper function. Note that we do not need to
call list_del() for each of the list items since we will never look at any of
the list items nor the list itself again.
