Subject: [PATCH 4.8 66/67] gpio: pca953x: Move memcpy into mutex lock for set multiple

4.8-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Phil Reid <preid@...ctromag.com.au>

commit 386377b5473043c09b2de40bfe5abfb0fc87e1b4 upstream.

Need to ensure that reg_output is not updated while setting multiple
bits. This makes the mutex locking behaviour for the set_multiple call
consistent with that of the set_value call.

Fixes: b4818afeacbd ("gpio: pca953x: Add set_multiple to allow multiple")
