Subject: devpts: must release s_umount on error
From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
We should drop the ->s_umount mutex if an error occurs after the
sget()/grab_super() call. This was introduced when adding support
for multiple instances of devpts and noticed during a code review/reorg.
