[PATCH] multipath-tools: release lock on handler failure

[Michael Wang <yun.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Inside parse_cmd() the pthread_cleanup_pop() rely on '!r' as the
indicator of locked or not, while this will be overwritten if the
handler return failed, and the unlock will be missing.

This will lead into the situation that all the following operation
will trying to hold a lock which will never be released.

This patch using a separate flag to record the status of locking to
make sure the unlock and lock are in pairs.
