6.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Uladzislau Rezki (Sony) <urezki@xxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 812a1c3b9f7c36d9255f0d29d0a3d324e2f52321 ] A static analyzer for C, Smatch, reports and triggers below warnings: kernel/rcu/rcuscale.c:1215 rcu_scale_init() warn: inconsistent returns 'global &fullstop_mutex'. The checker complains about, we do not unlock the "fullstop_mutex" mutex, in case of hitting below error path: <snip> ... if (WARN_ON_ONCE(jiffies_at_lazy_cb - jif_start < 2 * HZ)) { pr_alert("ERROR: call_rcu() CBs are not being lazy as expected!\n"); WARN_ON_ONCE(1); return -1; ^^^^^^^^^^ ... <snip> it happens because "-1" is returned right away instead of doing a proper unwinding. Fix it by jumping to "unwind" label instead of returning -1. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Paul E.
