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.

It is +divided into five parts. + +1. The :ref:`first part <v4l2spec>` covers radio, video capture and output, + cameras, analog TV devices and codecs. + +2. The :ref:`second part <dvbapi>` covers the API used for digital TV and + Internet reception via one of the several digital tv standards. While it is + called as DVB API, in fact it covers several different video standards + including DVB-T/T2, DVB-S/S2, DVB-C, ATSC, ISDB-T, ISDB-S, DTMB, etc. The + complete list of supported standards can be found at + :c:type:`fe_delivery_system`. + +3.
