[v2] iio: adc: mcp3422: fix locking scope

Commit Message

From: Angelo Compagnucci <[e-mail]>

Locking should be held for the entire reading sequence involving setting
the channel, waiting for the channel switch and reading from the
channel.
If not, reading from a channel can result mixing with the reading from
another channel.
