One more unlock missing in error case

From: Ulrich Drepper

This patch is needed to in addition to the other unlocking fix which is
already applied. It should be obvious that the system will deadlock in
case this isn't done.

(Andrew, I once again used a goto in the third error case because the
common code is again larger.)
