Another bug above spoted by Evgeny Baskakov from NVidia, mutex unlock
is missing ie something like:

if (!mem) {
	mutex_unlock(&mem_sysfs_mutex);
	return 0;
}

Between when are you planning on reposting ? I was hoping sometime soon
so i can repost HMM on top. I know with springtime celebration eveyrone
is out collecting chocolate eggs :)

Cheers,
Jérôme
