[PATCH 2/2] net/iucv: Improve error handling in iucv_enable()

From: Markus Elfring
Date: Mon Jan 01 2024 - 16:01:14 EST

The kfree() function was called in one case during error handling
even if the passed variable contained a null pointer.
This issue was detected by using the Coccinelle software.

* Thus achieve an unlock operation by using the corresponding label.

* Move two error code assignments to other places.
