You can use [PATCH net-mlx5] for fixes and [PATCH net-next-mlx5] for
none-critical commits.

Smatch complains about this function:

   drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/eswitch.c:2000 mlx5_esw_unlock()
   warn: inconsistent returns '&esw->mode_lock'.

Before commit ec2fa47d7b98 ("net/mlx5: Lag, use lag lock") there
used to be a matching mlx5_esw_lock() function and the lock and
unlock functions were symmetric.  But now we take the long
^ lock ?
unconditionally and must unlock unconditionally as well.

As near as I can tell this is dead code and can just be deleted.

Fixed up the typo and applied to net-next-mlx5.

Thanks,
Saeed.
