staging: comedi: wrap COMEDI_SRF_FREE_SPRIV usage
The `COMEDI_SRF_FREE_SPRIV` flag in the `runflags` member of `struct comedi_subdevice` indicates that the memory pointed to by the `private` member can be automatically freed by the comedi core on subdevice clean-up (when the low-level comedi device is being "detached"). the flag doesn't really belong in `runflags`, but it was somewhere convenient to keep it without having to add a new member to the structure. Rather than access the `COMEDI_SRF_FREE_SPRIV` flag directly, use some new wrapper functions: * comedi_can_auto_free_spriv(s) - checks whether the subdevice's `s->private` points to memory that can be freed automatically. * comedi_set_spriv_auto_free(s) - marks the subdevice as having a `s->private` that points to memory that can be freed automatically. Export `comedi_set_spriv_auto_free()` for use by the low-level comedi driver modules, in particular the "amplc_dio200_common" module.
