In the error handling case of nla_nest_start() failed read_unlock_bh()
is called  to unlock a lock that had not been taken yet. sparse warns
about the context imbalance as the following:

net/tipc/monitor.c:799:23: warning:
 context imbalance in '__tipc_nl_add_monitor' - different lock contexts for basic block
