Add a mutex destroy call in hclge_init_ae_dev() when fails.

How do you think about a wording variant like the following?

Change description:
The function âmutex_initâ was called before a call of
the function âhclge_pci_initâ.
But the function âmutex_destroyâ was not called after initialisation
steps failed.
Thus add the missed function call for the completion of
the exception handling.


It looks better. I will try to improve the skill of patch description
and make as many as people can understand the patch.

Thanks for help.


Would you like to add the tag âFixesâ to the commit message?


Since it seems not a very urgent issue, so i send it to the -next
and make it as a code optimization.

Thanks:)

How do you think about to use the label âdestroy_mutexâ instead?

Will use label 'destroy_mutexâ instead if there is another patch need to modify this code, which is more readable.

Thanks for your comments.
