[PATCH v2] staging: gpib: Add missing mutex unlock on early return in

From: Dave Penkler
Date: Wed Jan 08 2025 - 12:42:57 EST


When the buffer allocation for return data in ni_usb_write() fails
we were returning without unlocking the addressed_transfer_lock.

Add the unlock call.

This was detected by smatch:
New smatch warnings:
drivers/staging/gpib/ni_usb/ni_usb_gpib.c:837 ni_usb_write() warn: inconsistent returns '&ni_priv->addressed_transfer_lock'.
