I wonder if this line change here is really needed. I agree the whole
construction looks like what iio_device_claim_direct_mode() does but in
practice I don't see the point of acquiring any lock here if we just
release it no matter what happens right after.

Unless of course if there is a hidden goal like "stop exporting
iio_buffer_enabled()" or something like that.

At least I would separate this from the main change which targets the
removal of mlock because I don't see how it is directly related.

In any case, nice series, thanks for writing it!

Thanks,
