da9052_adc_manual_read() writes to DA9052_ADC_MAN_REG, waits for an
IRQ and then reads DA9052_ADC_RES_H_REG/DA9052_ADC_RES_L_REG. The
function called here works with the TSI registers instead. So
calling da9052_adc_manual_read() is not an option.
The reason for the locking problem is, that the same ADC is used
internally by the devices and muxed to different pins in the
background. In continuous touchscreen mode, the device is supposed
to schedule the ADC slots automatically and I assumed this would
also work here when I wrote the original support. Turns out the
device is not smart enough for that :(
