Actually, the "Fixes" tag is wrong here, though. The problem only
exists because we have <https://crrev.com/c/1632659> in our tree, AKA
("FROMLIST: iio: cros_ec : Extend legacy support to ARM device").
Before that there was no mutex. For upstream purposes this could
probably be squashed into the original patch.
