Good, this should now work nicely. I have suggested a further
improvement inline which I think will improve code clarity by
moving the lock to where it is obvious what it is protecting.

Hmm. There is a trade off here between complexity of patch
(this is the minimal version on that side) and neatness of
the result.
It isn't readily apparent that ade7758_write_samp_freq requires the locks
to be taken so I think we should really move them inside the function.
(it's the only function that does other than the obvious unlocked
variants you introduce).
That would mean changing the function definition to take indio_dev
instead of the device pointer.
I think that would be a nice further improvement to the patch.
Thanks,
Jonathan
