Add a helper function to create attributes and initialize their fields.
This reduces repetition when creating several attributes per channel.

It's a little unfortunate that we need to keep the state around when it
is only relevant in probe.

That's a very generic name. I'd prefix it to avoid potential namespace
issues in future.

I wonder if we should break this up into
static attribute *iio_hwmon_alloc_attr();
and setting st->attrs in the caller as then we can make num_attrs a local
variable.

This should hint that this is managed:
add_device_managed_attr()
?

__printf() attribute is missing.

Also move it a bit to make it more of a reversed xmas tree ordering?

That just makes it more difficult to format the calling code within 80 columns...

It's static, so I thought the compiler could infer it but I guess not.

It's not ordered as-is, and I don't think this subsystem requires it.

TBH, I haven't checked, but I think it might be the good style to add. -- With Best Regards, Andy Shevchenko
