ACPI / EC: Ensure lock is acquired before accessing ec struct members
commit 36b15875a7819a2ec4cb5748ff7096ad7bd86cbb upstream. A bug was introduced by commit b76b51ba0cef ('ACPI / EC: Add more debug info and trivial code cleanup') that erroneously caused the struct member to be accessed before acquiring the required lock. This change fixes it by ensuring the lock acquisition is done first.
