While available integration times are being printed to sysfs by iio core
(iio_read_channel_info_avail), the sampling frequency might be changed.
This could cause the buffer shared with iio core to be corrupted. To
prevent it, make a copy of the integration times buffer and free it in
the read_avail_release_resource callback.

Hi Matteo,

originally the `mutex` member of `struct as73211_data` was only intended for
protecting the cached device registers. So can you please update the
documentation of this member?

I can perform some testing für as73211, but I would like to wait until
the "copy data twice" question has been solved. IMHO a solution like Nuno
proposed may be easier to understand.

regards,
Christian
