[PATCH] iio: adc: ad7280a: replace mutex_lock() with guard(mutex)

From: Matheus Giarola

Date: Thu Mar 19 2026 - 14:54:04 EST


Use guard(mutex) instead of mutex_lock()/mutex_unlock(),
ensuring the mutex is released automatically when leaving
the function scope. The change improves error handling and
avoids issues such as missing unlocks. It also simplifies the
code by removing 'err_unlock' label and several mutex_unlock()
calls.
