From: Dinghao Liu <dinghao.liu@xxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit a036ad088306a88de87e973981f2b9224e466c3f ] The fixed commit removes all rtnl_lock() and rtnl_unlock() calls in function bnxt_re_dev_init(), but forgets to remove a rtnl_unlock() in the error handling path of bnxt_re_register_netdev(), which may cause a deadlock. This bug is suggested by a static analysis tool.
