Subject: [PATCH 5.4 072/102] net: openvswitch: dont unlock mutex when changing the user_features fails

From: Tonghao Zhang <xiangxia.m.yue@...il.com>

[ Upstream commit 4c76bf696a608ea5cc555fe97ec59a9033236604 ]

Unlocking of a not locked mutex is not allowed.
Other kernel thread may be in critical section while
we unlock it because of setting user_feature fail.
