From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> One of the error handling paths forgets to unlock dp->lock on the error exit path leading to a potential lock-up. Also the return path for a successful call to the function configuration_store can return an uninitialized error return code if dp->alt->active is false, so ensure ret is zeroed on the successful exit path to avoid garbage being returned.
