Subject: [PATCH] z85230: spinlock logic

At some point someone added a spin_lock(&dev->lock) to the IRQ handler
for the Z85230 driver. This actually correctly fixes a bug but the
neccessary changes to remove the chan->lock calls in the event handlers
were not made (c->lock is the same lock).

Simona Dascenzo reported the problem with the driver and this patch should
fix the problem he found.
