Subject: do_wait: Add missing tasklist unlocking in error paths.
Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2013 12:37:33 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130920163733.GA24958@redhat.com> (raw)
It looks like both 64a16caf5, and 98abed020 both introduced error paths to do_wait
where we miss unlocking the tasklist.
Spotted with coverity.
