If bus_lock_mutex is used, it will unnecessarily block queueing of new
messages when __spi_pump_messages() is calling transfer_one_message()
even in the case where there is no mmap mode. Hence, I chose to add new
mutex. But looks like it doesn't matter much as __spi_sync() anyways
blocks till message is transferred. I will drop the new mutex and use
bus_lock_mutex in v3. Thanks!
