ACPI / EC: Ensure lock is acquired before accessing ec struct members
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.
