Use of atomics does not make these statements robust:
atomic_inc(&chip->opencount);
if (atomic_read(&chip->opencount) > 1 && chip->rate_set)
chip->can_set_rate=0;
and
if (atomic_read(&chip->opencount)) {
if (chip->opencount) {
changed = -EAGAIN;
} else {
changed = set_digital_mode(chip, dmode);
It would be necessary to atomically increment or decrement the value
and use the returned result. And yet we still need to prevent other
threads making use of "can_set_rate" while we set it.
However in all but one case the atomic is misleading as they are already
running with "mode_mutex" held.
Decisions are made on mode setting are often intrinsically connected
to "opencount" because some operations are not permitted unless
there is sole ownership.
So instead simplify this, and use "mode_mutex" as a lock for all reference
counting and mode setting.

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.
