Trivial but sashiko pointed out mm[a]_8452 in the title.
I'll tidy that up if nothing significant comes up.

Interestingly Sashiko also thinks it found a deadlock.
Given you are working with this driver if you have time could
you take a look at that.

I'm rather surprised to see the lock taken in the runtime
pm suspend callback. It is probably there to close a race
where the device is being suspended and the sampling
frequency is being written.  I'm not immediately sure what
the best way to fix it is. One thing that would work is to
do pm_runtime_get* to raise the reference counter and stop
there being any chance of an autosuspend.
