Not sure I understand what you're getting at, but I've read that iio has at least two methods of access. Slow( sysfs ), and fast( mmap()). I'm not sure that the "fast" method driver exists for our board here in the context of the ADC's but certainly the slow sysfs method does. As for the rest of the things mentioned on that landing page you pasted a link to . . . it seems that he steps are very straight forward to get working, and indeed laid out on that exact page.
What are you wanting to do with iio ? The idea of the library does intrigue me too. But I'm, not exactly sure I have the time to learn yet-another-abstraction-layer . . .
