Subject[patch 31/32] PCI hotplug: fix lock imbalance in pciehp
2.6.27-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------
From: Jiri Slaby <jirislaby@gmail.com>

commit c2fdd36b550659f5ac2240d1f5a83ffa1a092289 upstream.

set_lock_status omits mutex_unlock in fail path. Add the omitted
unlock.

As a result a lockup caused by this can be triggered from userspace
by writing 1 to /sys/bus/pci/slots/.../lock often enough.
