Unfortunately this won't work.  That interrupt is still in traditional non
threaded form.  This will take a mutex in a top half interrupt handler
where a sleep cannot occur.

I'm just wondering how expensive it would be to fix this by moving that over
to a threaded handler.  In the poll_work case (buffer) it would be cleaner to do
so. I'm really confused what the intended interrupt handler
is in here.  I 'think' the sequence is:

Trigger fires the convst pin whether in top half or the bottom half of
a threaded interrupt, but not both - I guess this works, if it is rather
'unusual'.

We then get a interrupt to indicate that it has finished conversion and that
filters through to actually fill the buffer via a traditional top half /
bottom half interrupt handler.

So if we were to convert that to a threaded interrupt (with no top half / non
threaded part), we could drop the schedule_work and just call
ad7606_poll_bh_to_ring from the thread handler.

In the direct read case I doubt we care about the delay in dropping to a
thread prior to signalling the data is ready.

Can't think why this driver is still in staging :)

Lars, any interest from Analog in getting this one cleaned up?  Also
do you have any test hardware, if we mess around with this interrupt handling?
