When reading the voltage:
$ cat /sys/bus/iio/devices/iio\:device0/in_voltage0_raw
Lockdep complains:
[ 153.910616] ======================================================
[ 153.916918] WARNING: possible circular locking dependency detected
[ 153.923221] 5.14.0+ #5 Not tainted
[ 153.926692] ------------------------------------------------------
[ 153.932992] cat/717 is trying to acquire lock:
[ 153.937525] c2585358 (&indio_dev->mlock){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: iio_device_claim_direct_mode+0x28/0x44
[ 153.946541]
but task is already holding lock:
[ 153.952487] c2585860 (&dln2->mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: dln2_adc_read_raw+0x94/0x2bc [dln2_adc]
[ 153.961152]
which lock already depends on the new lock.
Fix this by not calling into the iio core underneath the dln2->mutex lock.
Fixes: 7c0299e879dd ("iio: adc: Add support for DLN2 ADC")
