[PATCH] rv: Fix missing unlock on double nested monitors return path

From: Gabriele Monaco
Date: Wed Apr 02 2025 - 03:15:06 EST


RV doesn't support nested monitors having children monitors themselves
and exits with the EINVAL code. However, it returns without unlocking
the rv_interface_lock.

Unlock the lock before returning from the initialisation function.

This fix is not critical since currently no nested monitor registers
nested monitors and doing so would require another review for inclusion
in the kernel code.
