Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 09/10] net: openvswitch: don't unlock mutex when changing the user_features fails

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

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.
