This ISR routine should be revisited:

 - no error message inside

 - use a shared interrupt to split what is handled by the ADC and the
    TM drivers

 - do not return IRQ_HANDLED in case of error (cf. irqreturn.h doc)

 - do not use a dedicated workqueue but the threaded mechanism of the irq

Why do you need to do that?

The temperature should reflect the current situation even if the
reading was triggered by a thermal trip violation.

Why disable the channel instead of returning an errno ?

The threaded interrupts set the isr in a thread and from the thread
handling the event, there is a work queue scheduled. Why not use the
top and bottom halves of the threaded interrupt ? Hopefully you should
be able to remove the lock.
