Author: Marcelo Schmitt <marcelo.schmitt@analog.com>
iio: adc: ad4134: Support SPI 4-wire mode
This commit adds support for interfacing with the AD4134 ADC in SPI 4-wire
mode using an external multiplexer to switch between register access on SDO
and ADC sample data reads on DOUT0.

[Severity: High]
Are these guard definitions and ACQUIRE() calls handling claim failures as
intended?
In ad4134_reg_write(), ad4134_data_read(), and ad4134_register_read(),
ACQUIRE() and ACQUIRE_ERR() are called with the unconditional guard classes
__ad4134_reg_access_mode and __ad4134_sample_access_mode rather than the
conditional _try variants (__ad4134_reg_access_mode_try and
__ad4134_sample_access_mode_try).
DEFINE_GUARD() defines a constructor of the form ({ _lock; _T; }), which
discards the return value of ad4134_claim_reg_access(st) or
ad4134_claim_sample_access(st) and unconditionally initializes claim to the
valid pointer st. As a result, ACQUIRE_ERR(..., &claim) always evaluates to 0.
If spi_setup() or mux_state_select() fails, the error is ignored, the SPI
transfer runs with the wrong SPI mode or mux routing, and scope exit runs
ad4134_release_*_access() -> mux_state_deselect(), calling up(&mux->lock) on
a semaphore that was never acquired.
Additionally, the conditional guards use the 3-argument DEFINE_GUARD_COND()
macro:
include/linux/cleanup.h:
#define DEFINE_GUARD_COND_3(_name, _ext, _condlock) \
DEFINE_GUARD_COND_4(_name, _ext, _condlock, _RET)
Because ad4134_claim_reg_access() and ad4134_claim_sample_access() return 0
on success and a negative errno on failure, the default _RET condition treats
0 as failure and negative error codes as success. Should DEFINE_GUARD_COND()
pass _RET == 0 as the fourth argument, and should the callers use
__ad4134_reg_access_mode_try and __ad4134_sample_access_mode_try?

[Severity: Medium]
In ad4134_probe(), when st->spi_mode is not AD4134_SPI_MODE_NO_CS,
devm_mux_state_get(dev, "data_read") is called twice in succession, and the
second call's result in st->mux_st[AD4134_DOUT0_INPUT] is later overwritten
by mux_st without checking for errors.
Was the second devm_mux_state_get(dev, "data_read") call left in by mistake
when introducing the mux_st local variable, leaving an extra struct mux_state
allocation and mux_chip reference held for the lifetime of the device?
