[PATCH RESEND] staging: iio: frequency: ad9832: use devm_mutex_init()

From: Nithishvelan M

Date: Sat Oct 31 2026 - 03:58:55 EST


Replace mutex_init() with devm_mutex_init() in ad9832_probe() and
check its return value. The driver already uses devm_* helpers for
its other resources and has no remove() callback, so this ensures
the mutex is destroyed automatically on teardown when mutex
debugging is enabled.

No functional change intended. Compile-tested only.

Resending because the first mail carried the patch as an attachment
instead of inline. No changes to the patch itself.
