Hi Antoniu

A few additional comments from me to add to those of the other reviewers.

This hard codes assumption that it is 2. So perhaps better to check for
that explicitly rather than simply > 1.
Maybe turn this into an appropriate loop so you don't need to care that
it's 2 or bigger.

To me, it makes sense to always use names for multi channel devices and only
fall back to this if there is only one supported channel.
Something like
		char *name = NULL;

		if (st->info->num_channels != 1)
			name = backend_names[ch];

		st->back[ch] = devm_iio_backend_get(dev, name);

This changes the ordering so we now enable it before requesting the buffer.
That may well be fine, but I'd kind of prefer that to be made clear. Perhaps
with a precursor patch reorganizing that order where you can talk about why
it is fine to do so.

Add a comment on why requesting only the first buffer is enough.
