When the buffer allocation for return data in ni_usb_write() fails we were returning without unlocking the addressed_transfer_lock. Add the unlock call. This was detected by smatch: New smatch warnings: drivers/staging/gpib/ni_usb/ni_usb_gpib.c:837 ni_usb_write() warn: inconsistent returns '&ni_priv->addressed_transfer_lock'.
