If we remove the locking, It will be issue if we have multiple devices
in a component, which is common atleast with the codec which am looking at.

I will revisit this area once again and get rid of this semaphore all
together in next version.

Currently the only user of the api is qcom slim controller. May be the
reason for it to use this api is to fit in with all the locking and
sequencing mechanism with in the core.
I will be revisiting the semaphore thingy before I send next version,
hopefully I can to align with your above comments.

Sure, will fix it in next version.

Yep, this function is unused, am going to delete this in next version.

With REQUEST_CHANGE_VALUE single command we can read old value at the
same time we can write new value.
