Ian Abbott e03b29b55f comedi: dmm32at: serialize use of paged registers
Some of the hardware registers of the DMM-32-AT board are multiplexed,
using the least significant two bits of the Miscellaneous Control
register to select the function of registers at offsets 12 to 15:

 00 => 8254 timer/counter registers are accessible
 01 => 8255 digital I/O registers are accessible
 10 => Reserved
 11 => Calibration registers are accessible

The interrupt service routine (`dmm32at_isr()`) clobbers the bottom two
bits of the register with value 00, which would interfere with access to
the 8255 registers by the `dm32at_8255_io()` function (used for Comedi
instruction handling on the digital I/O subdevice).

Make use of the generic Comedi device spin-lock `dev->spinlock` (which
is otherwise unused by this driver) to serialize access to the
miscellaneous control register and paged registers.
