[PATCH v2 09/16] iio: adc: ad7768-1: remove unnecessary locking

From: Jonathan Santos
Date: Mon Jan 27 2025 - 10:14:11 EST


The current locking is only preventing a triggered buffer Transfer and a
debugfs register access from happening at the same time. If a register
access happens during a buffered read, the action is doomed to fail anyway,
since we need to write a magic value to exit continuous read mode.

Remove locking from the trigger handler and use
iio_device_claim_direct_mode() instead in the register access function.
