Please check whether there should be a mutex_unlock before line 147.

OK, I don't know the calling context. But you have a function where the
lock is held on the failure path and is released on the success path,
which seems at least a little strange. But if the calling context deals
with that in a reasonable way, then ok. Maybe a comment would be useful.

Hi Julia, Angelo,
Please can we cc linux-iio@vger.kernel.org for such reports.
The fix has headed upstream. So we need to chase it with a fix asap.
Greg, would you prefer a following fix (please cc Greg directly) or
to revert the patch?
3f1093d83d71 ("iio: adc: mcp3422: fix locking scope")
Sorry I missed this one. Was working on wrong computer to access
the account this went to.
