ktime_set(S,N) was required for the timespec storage type and is still
useful for situations where a Seconds and Nanoseconds part of a time value
needs to be converted. For anything where the Seconds argument is 0, this
is pointless and can be replaced with a simple assignment.

This patch is in response to that of
Gregor Boirie <gregor.boirie@parrot.com>
who proposed using a tight kthread within a device driver (be it with the
support factored out into a helper library) in order to basically spin as
fast as possible.
It is meant as a talking point rather than a formal proposal of the code
(though we are heading towards that I think).
Also gives people some working code to mess around with.
I proposed that this could be done with a trigger with a few constraints
and this is the proof (be it ugly) of that.
There are some constraints though, some of which we would want to relax
if this were to move forward.
* Will only run the thread part of the registered pollfunc. This is to
avoid the overhead of jumping in and out of interrupt context. Is the
overhead significant? Not certain but feels like it should be!
* This limitation precludes any device that 'must' do some work in
interrupt context. However, that is true of few if any drivers and
I suspect that any that do will be restricted to using triggers they
provide themselves. Usually we have a top half mainly to grab a
timestamp as soon after the dataready type signal as possible.

This patch registers a new IIO software trigger interrupt source
based on high resolution timers.
Notice that if configfs is enabled we create sampling_frequency
attribute allowing users to change hrtimer period (1/sampling_frequency).
The IIO hrtimer trigger has a long history, this patch is based on
an older version from Marten and Lars-Peter.

This patch removes the .owner field for drivers which use the

Keeping Makefile and Kconfig entries in alphabetical order usually works better
than just appending new entries at the end, since it reduces the amount of
conflicts. This patch adds a comment to the IIO Kconfig and Makefile files to
document that the entries should be kept in alphabetical order.
Also reorder those entries which weren't in alphabetical order yet.

The name includes irq_res->start which of type resource_size_t not integer.
We could in theory use %pa for this but then it would be in hex and also
that causes a warning about incorrect types anyway. Hence just
use the irq local variable we assigned the line above.

This is now a very simple trigger indeed but useful in many common cases.

The usage of strict_strtoul() is not preferred, because
strict_strtoul() is obsolete. Thus, kstrtoul() should be
used.

This simple driver is rather useful. No issues about its interface
have been raised for some time hence the proposal to move it out
of staging.
