Thanks! You probably also want to explain that due to nature of the change
it may not be split to a separate patches.

...

So far we have IIO_BACKEND and IIO_GTS_HELPER, this one introduces
IIO_CONSUMER. I have briefly looked at the names of the APIs and taking into
account that they are all in inkern.c with the consumer.h header to provide
an API for the users. That said, I found the choice and implementation sane
and consistent. If we need any changes in the future it will require anyway
more than just namespace shuffling.
