.read_raw()/.write_raw() could be called asynchronously from user space
or other in kernel drivers. Without locking on st->lock these could be
called asynchronously while there is a conversion in progress. Read will
be harmless but changing registers while conversion is in progress may
lead to inconsistent results. Thus, to avoid this lock st->lock.
Fixes: 27e177190891 ("iio:adc:at91_adc8xx: introduce new atmel adc driver")
Fixes: 6794e23fa3fe ("iio: adc: at91-sama5d2_adc: add support for oversampling resolution")
