iio_dev->mlock should be used by the IIO core only for protecting
device operating mode changes. ie. Changes between INDIO_DIRECT_MODE,
INDIO_BUFFER_* modes.
Replace mlock with a lock in the device's global data to protect
hardware state changes. Declare a new lock to avoid deadlocks due to
nested mutex locks.

Changes in v2:
Declared a new lock for raw reads/writes
