Maybe dmc->df->lock seems not needed to protect "if (ret)

I suggest to improve also this commit message.

* Please reduce uncertainty.

* An imperative wording is probably preferred, isn't it?

* Will it be more appropriate to refer to the transformation “Reduce the lock scope”?

* Would you like to add the tag “Fixes” to the change description?

Thank you Markus for providing to Bernard helpful suggestions.

@Bernard please read the link above and send v3

Something like: 'memory/samsung: reduce protected code area in IRQ
handler' for the subject header would be better.
Then in the message explain (without 'maybe') that it will speed-up a
bit this IRQ processing and there is no need to protect return value or
printing.

Lukasz
