This is in preparation for supporting interface tuning in one for the devices using the axi-adc backend. The new added interfaces are all needed for that calibration: * iio_backend_test_pattern_set(); * iio_backend_chan_status(); * iio_backend_iodelay_set(); * iio_backend_data_sample_trigger(). Interface tuning is the process of going through a set of known points (typically by the frontend), change some clk or data delays (or both) and send/receive some known signal (so called test patterns in this change). The receiving end (either frontend or the backend) is responsible for validating the signal and see if it's good or not. The goal for all of this is to come up with ideal delays at the data interface level so we can have a proper, more reliable data transfer. Also note that for some devices we can change the sampling rate (which typically means changing some reference clock) and that can affect the data interface. In that case, it's import to run the tuning algorithm again as the values we had before may no longer be the best (or even valid) ones.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
