Re: [PATCH v2] iio: cleanup: uintptr_t to unsigned long

Linus has been explicit that uintptr_t should not be used in the kernel.

The iio_chan_spec_ext_info struct uses uintptr_t for the private field
and in its read/write function pointer signatures. Jonathan Cameron noted
this should be cleaned up in one go across all users [1].

Update the struct definition in iio.h and backend.h, along with all
drivers implementing or using iio_chan_spec_ext_info callbacks.

No functional change intended.

Please, really, take your time and study process documentation!
No new version, especially that SPAMS so many people, in less
than 24h. You must give a chance other people to review.

This version effectively ignores all my comments I just gave against v1.
So big NAK again!
