patch "iio: adc: mcp3422: fix locking scope" added to staging-linus

[<gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled

    iio: adc: mcp3422: fix locking scope

to my staging git tree which can be found at
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
in the staging-linus branch.

The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree
(usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)

The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the
next -rc kernel release.

If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: iio: adc: mcp3422: fix locking scope

Locking should be held for the entire reading sequence involving setting
the channel, waiting for the channel switch and reading from the
channel.
If not, reading from a channel can result mixing with the reading from
another channel.
