This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled iio: dac: ad5592r: fix unbalanced mutex unlocks in ad5592r_read_raw() to my staging git tree which can be found at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git in the staging-next branch. The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.) The patch will also be merged in the next major kernel release during the merge window. If you have any questions about this process, please let me know. >From 65afb0932a81c1de719ceee0db0b276094b10ac8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandru Ardelean <alexandru.ardelean@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2020 14:02:57 +0300 Subject: iio: dac: ad5592r: fix unbalanced mutex unlocks in ad5592r_read_raw() There are 2 exit paths where the lock isn't held, but try to unlock the mutex when exiting. In these places we should just return from the function. A neater approach would be to cleanup the ad5592r_read_raw(), but that would make this patch more difficult to backport to stable versions.
