From: Zinc Lim <limzhineng2@gmail.com>
Reading an hwmon sensor issues a TSENE firmware mailbox transaction that
uses a shared completion slot. Concurrent reads (e.g. parallel
"cat .../temp1_input" or a monitoring agent polling all attributes) race
over that slot, and the second transmit fails because a completion is
already pending:
fbnic 0000:41:00.0: Failed to transmit TSENE read msg, err -17
Serialize the hwmon read path with a per-device mutex so only one TSENE
transaction is in flight at a time.
Fixes: 880630734102 ("eth: fbnic: Add hardware monitoring support via HWMON interface")
