From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Greg KH <gregkh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

3.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Santosh Nayak <santoshprasadnayak@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 82163edcdfa4eb3d74516cc8e9f38dd3d039b67d upstream.

There is a missing "up_write()" here. Semaphore should be released
before returning error value.
