staging:iio:ade7758: Fix NULL pointer deref when enabling buffer
In older versions of the IIO framework it was possible to pass a completely
different set of channels to iio_buffer_register() as the one that is
assigned to the IIO device. Commit 959d2952d124 ("staging:iio: make
iio_sw_buffer_preenable much more general.") introduced a restriction that
requires that the set of channels that is passed to iio_buffer_register() is
a subset of the channels assigned to the IIO device as the IIO core will use
the list of channels that is assigned to the device to lookup a channel by
scan index in iio_compute_scan_bytes(). If it can not find the channel the
function will crash. This patch fixes the issue by making sure that the same
set of channels is assigned to the IIO device and passed to
iio_buffer_register().
Note that we need to remove the IIO_CHAN_INFO_RAW and IIO_CHAN_INFO_SCALE
info attributes from the channels since we don't actually want those to be
registered.
Fixes the following crash:
