This function does not have mutex_lock/unlock because it is called with data->mutex locked.
I should have added a comment to specify this.

Whenever we wake up the device, bmc150_magn_set_power_state is called after locking
data->mutex. This in turn calls pm_runtime_get_sync which will immediately call
bmc150_magn_runtime_resume. Trying to lock the mutex here would lead to a deadlock
(e.g. when trying to read a value through sysfs _raw).

Since this driver uses autosuspend delay, the situation is different for runtime suspend since
that is called after 2 seconds in a separate thread. This is why there is a mutex locked in runtime
suspend but not in runtime resume.
