[PATCH 4.18 013/235] net/mlx5: Fix not releasing read lock when adding flow rules

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 24 2018 - 08:27:10 EST


4.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Roi Dayan <roid@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 071304772fc747d5df13c51f1cf48a4b922a5e0d ]

If building match list fg fails and we never jumped to
search_again_locked label then the function returned without
unlocking the read lock.

Fixes: bd71b08ec2ee ("net/mlx5: Support multiple updates of steering rules in parallel")
