ring-buffer: Add missing unlock
In some error handling cases the lock is not unlocked. The return is converted to a goto, to share the unlock at the end of the function. A simplified version of the semantic patch that finds this problem is as follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/ ) // <smpl> @r exists@ expression E1; identifier f; @@ f (...) { <+... * spin_lock_irq (E1,...); ... when != E1 * return ...; ...+> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk> LKML-Reference: <Pine.LNX.4.64.1003291736440.21896@ask.diku.dk> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org>
