Subject: [PATCH v5 1/6] iio: buffer: add back-ref from iio_buffer to iio_dev

An IIO device will have multiple buffers, but it shouldn't be allowed that
an IIO buffer should belong to more than 1 IIO device.

Once things get moved more from IIO device to the IIO buffer, and an IIO
device will be able to have more than 1 buffer attached, there will be a
need for a back-ref to the IIO device [from the IIO buffer].

This change adds that.
