Source file correspondence on the master branch: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/master/drivers/media/pci/ddbridge/ddbridge-core.c#L595 Summary: The lock acquired on (port->i2c_gate_lock) is never released if function (tuner_attach_tda18271) returns on line 605. Details: Function tuner_attach_tda18271 (line 595) acquires a lock on port->i2c_gate_lock via the call to the function pointer (input->fe->ops.i2c_gate_ctrl(input->fe, 1)) (line 601) which calls function (drxk_gate_ctrl). However, when the call to function (dvb_attach) on line 602 fails (returns NULL), the lock on (port->i2c_gate_lock) is never released.
