Hi Naresh, Hi Greg,

Thanks for the report! 

Looks like the backport of 45537926dd2a ("s390/pci: Fix stale function
handles in error handling") is broken. In the original commit there is
a context line mutex_lock(&zdev->state_lock) from commit bcb5d6c76903
("s390/pci: introduce lock to synchronize state of zpci_dev's") that
ended up in the stable tree without also pulling in the rest of that
commit. I found that backport in my mail and not only is the context
turned into added lines but it also adds the matching unlock in the
wrong place. Will comment on that mail too.

Thanks,
Niklas
