Subject[PATCH 3/17] arch/mips/kernel: Add missing read_unlock
From: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

Add a read_unlock missing on the error path. Other ways of reaching
out_unlock have tasklist_lock unlocked.

The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression E1;
@@

* read_lock(E1,...);
<+... when != E1
if (...) {
... when != E1
* return ...;
}
...+>
* read_unlock(E1,...);
// </smpl>

Signed-off-by: Julia Lawall <julia@diku.dk>

I wasn't able to find what security_task_setscheduler actually does.
If it releases tasklist_lock in an error case, then ignire this patch.
