Subject: [PATCH 1/5] iio: adc: spear_adc: Replace indio_dev->mlock with own device lock

From: Sergiu Cuciurean <sergiu.cuciurean@...log.com>

As part of the general cleanup of indio_dev->mlock, this change replaces
it with a local lock on the device's state structure.

This is part of a bigger cleanup.
