hwmon: (pmbus/adm1266) serialize sequencer_state debugfs read with pmbus_lock
adm1266_state_read() backs the sequencer_state debugfs entry and
issues an i2c_smbus_read_word_data(client, ADM1266_READ_STATE)
against the device without taking pmbus_lock. pmbus_core holds
pmbus_lock around its own multi-transaction sequences (notably the
"set PAGE, then read paged register" pattern used by hwmon
attributes), so an unlocked debugfs reader can land between a PAGE
write and the subsequent paged read in another thread. READ_STATE
itself is not paged, so it cannot corrupt PAGE in flight, but the
same defensive serialisation that applies to the GPIO accessors
applies here: any direct device access from outside pmbus_core
should be ordered with respect to pmbus_core's own.
Take pmbus_lock at the top of adm1266_state_read() via the
scope-based guard().
