PATCH 1/1 gpio/grgpio: fix deadlock in grgpio_irq_unmap()

As reported by Alexey Khoroshilov:

grgpio_irq_unmap() code looks quite suspicious regarding usage of priv->bgc.lock spinlock.

It locks the spinlock in line 310:

spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->bgc.lock, flags);

and then it can call grgpio_set_imask() in line 317:

grgpio_set_imask(priv, i, 0);

But grgpio_set_imask() unconditionally locks the spinlock by itself.

Fix this by moving the spinlock acquisition outside of grgpio_set_imask().
