[PATCH 06/30] devpts: must release s_umount on error

From: Alan Cox
Date: Tue Mar 24 2009 - 10:04:40 EST


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.
