e1000e: fix double release of mutex
During a reset, releasing the swflag after it failed to be acquired would cause a double unlock of the mutex. Instead, test whether acquisition of the swflag was successful and if not, do not release the swflag. The reset must still be done to bring the device to a quiescent state. This resolves [BUG 12200] BUG: bad unlock balance detected! e1000e http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12200 Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher <jeffrey.t.kirsher@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
