I suspect there may be race conditions here. Once again you're reading
a value without first acquiring the lock. Since this is another
utility function, the lock should probably be held _before_ calling
this function and any locking in this function should be removed.
Adding a BUG_ON(!is_mutex_locked(&radio->lock)) should probably be
added as well.
