Subject: [PATCH v2] Staging: dgnc: release the lock before testing for nullity
Date: Wed, 18 Mar 2015 13:21:08 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1426684868-24402-1-git-send-email-lambert.quentin@gmail.com> (raw)

The refactoring intrduced in
c84a083b995b ("Staging: dgnc: Use goto for spinlock release before return")
inverts the order in which the lock is released and ld is tested for nullity.

This patch restores the execution flow.

Fixes: c84a083b995b ("Staging: dgnc: Use goto for spinlock release before return")
Signed-off-by: Quentin Lambert <lambert.quentin@gmail.com>

Changes since v1:
 - the commit message details the point of the patch
 - remove a blank line between the Fixes line and the signed-off line.
