4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Omar Sandoval <osandov@xxxxxx> commit bdac616db9bbadb90b7d6a406144571015e138f7 upstream. Commit 2d1d4c1e591f made loop_get_status() drop lo_ctx_mutex before returning, but the loop_get_status_old(), loop_get_status64(), and loop_get_status_compat() wrappers don't call loop_get_status() if the passed argument is NULL. The callers expect that the lock is dropped, so make sure we drop it in that case, too.
