Some IP blocks like RTC, needs an additional unlocking mechanism for
writing to its registers. This patch adds optional lock and unlock
function pointers to the IP block's hwmod data which gets executed
before and after writing into IP sysconfig register.
And also hook lock and unlock functions to AMx3xx, DRA7 RTC hwmod data,
so that sysconfig registers are updated properly.
ping on this series.

Thanks and regards,
Lokesh

It is also racy, as there is no locking in place to avoid concurrent access to
the lock/unlock registers across hwmod+driver.
I don't see the race.  Where is it?
