[PATCH 5.5 119/176] mac80211: Remove a redundant mutex unlock

From: Andrei Otcheretianski <andrei.otcheretianski@intel.com>

commit 0daa63ed4c6c4302790ce67b7a90c0997ceb7514 upstream.

The below-mentioned commit changed the code to unlock *inside*
the function, but previously the unlock was *outside*. It failed
to remove the outer unlock, however, leading to double unlock.

Fix this.
