mfd: dln2: Run event handler loop under spinlock
[ Upstream commit 3d858942250820b9adc35f963a257481d6d4c81d ]
The event handler loop must be run with interrupts disabled.
Otherwise we will have a warning:

Recently xHCI driver switched to tasklets in the commit 36dc01657b49
("usb: host: xhci: Support running urb giveback in tasklet context").
The handle_irq_event_* functions are expected to be called with interrupts
disabled and they rightfully complain here because we run in tasklet context
with interrupts enabled.
Use a event spinlock to protect event handler from being interrupted.
Note, that there are only two users of this GPIO and ADC drivers and both of
them are using generic_handle_irq() which makes above happen.
