From: Daniel Scheller <d.scheller@xxxxxxx> When calling gate_ctrl() with enable=0 if previously the mutex wasn't locked (ie. on enable=1 failure and subdrivers not handling this properly, or by otherwise badly behaving drivers), the i2c_lock could be unlocked consecutively which isn't allowed. Prevent this by keeping track of the lock state, and actually call mutex_unlock() only when certain the lock is held.
