Subject: [RFC][PATCH] devpts: Must release s_umount on error
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.

Looks good and should probably be submitted for 2.6.29.
