Hmm. I'm not sure I follow the logic. That lock is
for one thing and one thing only, preventing access
to the iio device that are unsafe when it is running
in a buffered mode. We shouldn't be in a position where
we both say don't do this if we are in buffered mode, + enter
buffered mode whilst doing this, or we need special functions
for entering buffering mode if in this state. We are in
some sense combining internal driver logic with overall
IIO states. IIO shouldn't care that the device is using
the same methods under the hood for buffered and non
buffered operations.
I can't really recall how this driver works. Is it actually
possible to have multiple hw_consumers at the same time?
So do we end up with multiple buffers registered and have
to demux out to the read_raw + the actual buffered path?
Given we have a bit of code saying grab one sample, I'm
going to guess we don't...
If so, the vast majority of the buffer setup code in IIO
is irrelevant here and we just need to call a few of
the callbacks from this driver directly... (I think
though I haven't chased through every corner.
I'd rather avoid introducing this nesting for a corner
case that makes no 'semantic' sense in IIO as it leaves us
in two separate states at the same time that the driver
is trying to make mutually exclusive. We can't both
not be in buffered mode, and in buffered mode.
Thanks and good luck with this nasty corner!
