I had a look at this whilst travelling and it's a lot more complex than I
thought it would be because of gaps in the scan_index in some drivers (not
all channels have scan indexes and not all scan indexes are used)

If we write such a thing we need to resolve that in the core and I suspect
it will require creation of an indirection structure that lets us
do scan_index based look up of channels.  Whilst that works in many drivers
because there is a nice 1 to 1 mapping, there are exceptions.
Hence I think we would be looking at:

1) Check at registration time on whether scan_index == location in
iio_dev->channels, if so set another pointer say iio_dev->channels_linear =
iio_dev->channels.
2) If not, create a lookup table and make iio_dev->channels_linear
point to that.
3) Finally introduce a macro that uses channels_linear.

What fun ;)
