Hmm, a given iio_trigger_type list element is mostly read. Also, borrowed
the code from file systems core implementation.

http://lxr.linux.no/linux+v3.19.1/fs/filesystems.c#L33

Anyhow, there is no problem to use a mutex.

I see your point. Could change the code to use a mutex.

I see, we can do this later. Anyhow, I'm not convinced that EAGAIN is a good
value here. We just want to inform the user that the module registering this
trigger type is already loaded.

Like here:
