update_lock is a mutex intended to protect write operations. It was not
taken, however, when _pmbus_write_word_data is called from
pmbus_set_samples() function which may cause problems especially when
some PMBUS_VIRT_* operation is implemented as a read-modify-write cycle.
This patch makes sure the lock is held during the operation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
