Mauro Carvalho Chehab 9303c9d5e9 docs: get rid of :c:type explicit declarations for structs
The :c:type:`foo` only works properly with structs before
Sphinx 3.x.

On Sphinx 3.x, structs should now be declared using the
.. c:struct, and referenced via :c:struct tag.

As we now have the automarkup.py macro, that automatically
convert:
	struct foo

into cross-references, let's get rid of that, solving
several warnings when building docs with Sphinx 3.x.

===========
HW consumer
===========
An IIO device can be directly connected to another device in hardware. In this
case the buffers between IIO provider and IIO consumer are handled by hardware.
The Industrial I/O HW consumer offers a way to bond these IIO devices without
software buffer for data. The implementation can be found under
:file:`drivers/iio/buffer/hw-consumer.c`
* struct iio_hw_consumer — Hardware consumer structure
* :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_alloc` — Allocate IIO hardware consumer
* :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_free` — Free IIO hardware consumer
* :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_enable` — Enable IIO hardware consumer
* :c:func:`iio_hw_consumer_disable` — Disable IIO hardware consumer
HW consumer setup
=================
As standard IIO device the implementation is based on IIO provider/consumer.
A typical IIO HW consumer setup looks like this::
static struct iio_hw_consumer *hwc;
static const struct iio_info adc_info = {
.read_raw = adc_read_raw,
};
static int adc_read_raw(struct iio_dev *indio_dev,
struct iio_chan_spec const *chan, int *val,
int *val2, long mask)
{
ret = iio_hw_consumer_enable(hwc);
/* Acquire data */
ret = iio_hw_consumer_disable(hwc);
}
static int adc_probe(struct platform_device *pdev)
{
hwc = devm_iio_hw_consumer_alloc(&iio->dev);
}
