[PATCH 24/62] net/cw1200: Fix locking in error paths

From: Bart Van Assche

Date: Mon Feb 23 2026 - 17:10:39 EST


From: Bart Van Assche <bvanassche@xxxxxxx>

cw1200_wow_suspend() must only return with priv->conf_mutex locked if it
returns zero. This mutex must be unlocked if an error is returned. Add
mutex_unlock() calls to the error paths from which that call is missing.
This has been detected by the Clang thread-safety analyzer.
