iio: triggered-buffer: prevent possible freeing of wrong buffer

commit bce61476dc82f114e24e9c2e11fb064781ec563c upstream.

Commit ee708e6baa ("iio: buffer: introduce support for attaching more
IIO buffers") introduced support for multiple buffers per indio_dev but
left indio_dev->buffer for a few legacy use cases.

In the case of the triggered buffer, iio_triggered_buffer_cleanup()
still assumes that indio_dev->buffer points to the buffer allocated by
iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext(). However, since
iio_triggered_buffer_setup_ext() now calls iio_device_attach_buffer()
to attach the buffer, indio_dev->buffer will only point to the buffer
allocated by iio_device_attach_buffer() if it the first buffer attached.

This adds a check to make sure that no other buffer has been attached
yet to ensure that indio_dev->buffer will be assigned when
iio_device_attach_buffer() is called.

As per discussion in the review thread, we may want to deal with multiple
triggers per device, but this is a fix for the issue in the meantime and
any such support would be unlikely to be suitable for a backport.
