Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Use scoped_guard to safely manage mutex locking

This change replaces manual mutex locking/unlocking with scoped_guard
to ensure mutexes are always released safely, even in the presence of
early returns or errors. It simplifies control flow and eliminates the
need for explicit goto-based cleanup blocks.

Erick Karanja (2):
  PCI: endpoint: Replace manual mutex handling with scoped_guard()
  PCI: endpoint: Use scoped_guard for manual mutex lock/unlock
