[v6 07/14] iio: add support for binary attributes

From: Andrea Merello <andrea.merello@xxxxxx>

When a IIO device is registered, the IIO core creates an attribute group on
its own, where it puts the channel attributes, and where it copies the
attributes in indio_dev->info->attrs.

Unfortunately it doesn't take care of binary attributes (i.e. it only
consider indio_dev->info->attrs->attrs, and it ignores
indio_dev->info->attrs->bin_attrs).

Fix this by making the IIO layer take care also of the binary attributes.

Note that while it is necessary to copy the non-binary attributes because
the IIO layer needs more room to add the channels attribute, it should be
enough to assign the bin_attrs pointer to the binary attributes pointed by
indio_dev->info->attrs->bin_attrs.
