iio: proximity: vl53l0x-i2c: claim direct mode for raw readsgrafted
vl53l0x_read_raw() starts a single-shot ranging measurement and reads
back the result. Once the triggered buffer is enabled the sensor runs in
continuous mode and its data-ready interrupt is routed to the trigger,
so a concurrent in_distance_raw read disturbs the streaming setup and
never gets its completion, returning -ETIMEDOUT.
The original submission claimed direct mode here, but it was dropped
during review because the driver had no buffer support at the time [1].
Continuous (buffered) mode was later added without restoring the
claim [2], reintroducing the conflict.
Reject direct reads while buffered capture is active by claiming direct
mode around the measurement, as the vl53l1x sibling already does.

To review previous messages, press the Insert key to switch to the VT +review mode. In review mode, the arrow keys permit to browse in the VT content, +`PAGE-UP`/`PAGE-DOWN` keys go at the top/bottom of the screen, and +the `HOME` key goes back +to the cursor, hence providing very basic screen reviewing facility. + +Sound feedback can be obtained by adding the ``braille_console.sound=1`` kernel +parameter. + +For simplicity, only one braille console can be enabled, other uses of +``console=brl,...`` will be discarded.
