[PATCH] spi: don't lock the bus in __spi_pump_messages if it is already locked

External users may use spi_bus_lock to get exclusive access. This will
also grab the bus_lock_mutex and may therefore result in a deadlock if
__spi_pump_messages also tries to get the mutex.

Fixes: 49023d2e4ead ("spi: core: Fix deadlock when sending messages")
