Subject: [PATCH] [ufs] Remove incorrect unlock_kernel from failure path in
	ufs_symlink

ufs_symlink, in one of its error paths, calls unlock_kernel without ever
having called lock_kernel(); fix this by creating and jumping to a new label
out_notlocked rather than the out label used after calling lock_kernel().
